Waiting for Results https://pathwaysgbf.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/stay-home-1.jpg 250 192 Pathways - Guiding Bright Futures https://pathwaysgbf.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/stay-home-1.jpgSeveral of the young adults we work with share apartments together to defray costs. When two young men in two different apartments started showing virus symptoms, the staff had all the young adults there tested. Each waited anxiously for their results to be delivered. Now, we have 6 young adults (5 male, 1 female) who are battling the coronavirus, several of whom have serious underlying health conditions. Their roommates who are not Covid positive also have to quarantine with them. The wave of new infections in India has hit home.
As soon as we found out, the Pathways team sprang into action. We found a catering service that would deliver meals to their doorsteps, so that the sick young adults and their roommates would have nutritious food. We arranged for a doctor to meet with each of them virtually to assess their medical condition. We found the medications they need (which can be hard to come by right now) and arranged for those to be delivered too. We are dropping care packages with breakfast supplies. They are discouraged, scared, upset, and frustrated. So, we are meeting with them regularly by phone and Zoom to pray, encourage, and give them some company. All of this support is possible because of the way you support us. Without you, these young adults would be facing this scary time alone!
