Our Session Clerk Elizabeth White has spoke to Lineth Ncube on Wednesday. She is the young lady, who is suffering from TB in her bones,
She is currently in hospital at Nazareth House undergoing tests and she isin a lot of pain, which is centred in her stomach and ribs.From what she told Liz it sounds as if this could be a side effect of the treatment she is undergong, but the doctor wants scans and other tests done all the same.
The medical team took blood yesterday and Lineth is now waiting to go for the scans and Xrays, which cannot be done at Nazareth House as they do not have the equipment.
Liz asks that we step up prayer for Lineth – asking the Lord to relieve her from the pain, and that it may not have serious consequences and that healing will be swift.
Lineth has not been home or in touch with her siblings in Zimbabwe for atleast 18 months and is desperate to be able to visit them at her home near Harare. For ages she felt she had let them down by coming to South Africa and not succeeding in finding a job to send them much needed funds. Her parents are both dead and she feels very responsible for the other siblings, and she misses them.
Let's pray for Lineth.

Lineth's story touched me. It must be awful to be alone in a far off land. Our family upholds her in prayer.
