Please meet Josepha

As I was voluteering to be TAXI BOY today running around doing errands preparing for the teams arrival...yet again God had me doing some meaningless tasks, only to lead me to another "least of these" moments...see next set of photos...
This is a story of Josepha. She is 30 years old. She WALKS on her HANDS, and drags her lower limbs, which are basically nubs. I asked her how much she makes when she comes into the city to beg, as she smiled and said "2000 francs" which is approximately 4 dollars. She said she has to feed her two kids.
TWO KIDS! are you kiddin me? How is this physically possible?
I did not think she had the physical possibility to bear children. This truly is amazing. As I looked at her on the asphalt...see next photo Posted by Picasa
