HALF CURED, AND THEN THE DRUG RAN OUT
Louis T. Talbot, Chancellor
"Dear Ones: In my profound dis tress I have plucked up the courage to write you, praying that God will open your heart to my desperate cry and that you will come to my rescue. I am a poor, orphaned girl who has been treated for 5 years at the sani tarium in Athens. My health grew worse and worse until I was brought to the brink of despair. I hardly knew what to do or what lay ahead of me. The only thing I was quite sure of was that every day I got nearer to the end. "Then, four months ago, they be gan to treat me with Seromycin sent by the American Mission to Greeks, and the results were really wonder ful. Although the doctors had given up hope of my recovery, within 3 months I felt almost well. But my treatment was not completed because the supply of the drag ran out. The doctors told us they could continue to give the medicine only to those who were able to buy it. I was the only one here, the poorest of all, who couldn’t afford this medicine’ Oh, the feeling of disappointment that filled my heart as I realized that my hopes for a steady recovery were ruined! In my despair I thought of writing you to ask for this precious medicine upon which my whole life depends. Please do help me in any way God may lead you to. Yours respectfully, Despina Pozapalidou.” What a cruel stroke of fate, to see recovery just within your grasp and not be able to reach it. Must we tell this dear girl, and many others in a similar plight, she will just have to become resigned to her lot, or will you enable us to send her the miracle- working drag that means life to her frail body ? As God lays it upon your heart, will you not give whatever you can and trust Him to multiply it through others? We want to send Despina a Greek Bible too, to bring her to the Saviour who can give her eternal life. Pray for her, and send your gift today to the American Mis sion to Greeks, Inc., Rev.
