Gastric Sleeve And Gastroparesis

two days in the "Hogar de la Luz"

Immediately after the "vacation Recreativos" I spent two days in another project, the "Hogar de la Luz". The "Hogar de la Luz" is a pure girl home, which is a little outside of Montebello. The Girls who live there are under 18 years old and every one of you is hidden in their own often very painful story about the reason for staying in the home .. Many of them have experienced violence and abuse must make in their lives and live there because they have no parents or because they have no money to feed them! I immediately noticed that the work in the home a very different work than at school. The home presents for the children like a family and you can build a much more personal rapport with children. These two days have brought me very much to move. When I saw the bedroom of the girl, I was speechless .. In the home live about 70-80 girls. The bedrooms can be counted on one hand, so sleep in a room on the bed next to bed and 20 girls live. Each of you has even a small cupboard in the size of a bedside table and not more .. There are 2 small residence halls, a small area to play and the dining room. It was terrible for me to see that so many children grow up in a heap, without the slightest to have privacy, have. If you then a 14 year-old girl in the eye looks and says that it has in 12 years no parents because the mother died and his father was killed by the FARC when one has another girl legs covered in scars and all morning waiting for the visit of their mother comes with no one if another girl starved almost in pajamas alone outside stands and performs with traumatized view self-talk can be felt deep in the heart of a strong jump-off to take the true injustice of the world and the desire of these girls just in the arm, to show them that you have them like they are something special, no matter who and how they are ... !
These two days I have been very thought-and I realized for the first time really that I was able to experience the absolutely most wonderful childhood in the world. I had enough to eat and drink, I had toys, we were on vacation every summer, there were presents for Christmas, birthday and Easter, I received support and assistance in all my needs and problems, I never force need to know ... and the most important thing: I had parents who loved me and still do now ..

holiday games in Montebello

we were at the point that the summer holidays have begun for the children from the Colegio, 3 months! What has it all happen?
The first two weeks of the holidays I spent in the small library of the school. Small library to be, well, probably more of a junk room, it had an urgent need cleaned, and sorted at times! I have sorted out all the books with jasmine, rearranged, dusted off and thrown away a lot of it. The problem is there that it can rain from all sides through the ceiling start. This is the reason why moist all the books and very many of them are moldy.
Then began the "vacation Recreativos, holiday games for the children of Monte Bello, at the Colegio! Six volunteers (including me) were asked to take care of the design of these holiday games. Initially, it was still unclear whether the holiday games take place at all are: Log in enough children? If so, all the children the amount of 5,000 pesos to pay to participate? Is there enough money for the materials? And and and ...
After much back and forth, we have a box of materials to work to get available. Although far from all the materials that we had requested, but all things from which you can do with a little creativity! There were three groups of children who were divided according to age, and three different topics on which activities were executed: 1 Sport, 2 Art, 3 Germany! My original plan was to rehearse with the children, a puppet play and the required hand puppets themselves produce. This plan but I have thrown the first week of the pile because it was not feasible for me. First, no materials were available to make hand puppets. Second, the rehearsal of a puppet theater piece is a continuous work that is not guaranteed when other children come every day and go! Finally, I screwed my requirements with the children back and artistic activities such as painting, crafts, working with paper mache, etc. carried out, which was hard enough:). In the first week we have the book "The Very Hungry Caterpillar" by taken to task gemacht und gebastelt. In der Woche darauf haben wir mit Hilfe von Luftballons und Pappmaché bunte Schüsseln hergestellt. Die restlichen Tage haben wir vor allem Basteleien für Weihnachten angefertigt und ausstehende Arbeiten, wie zum Beispiel das Bemalen der getrockneten Pappmaché-Schüsseln, aufgeholt.
Anfangs war ich ziemlich frustriert und jeden Tag von Neuem am Ende von meinen Kräften, denn die wenigsten der Kinder gehorchen oder führen ihre Arbeit pflichtgemäß aus. Eine Unterrichtsstunde gleicht viel mehr einem totalen Durcheinander. Kinder, die kreischen, Kinder, die sich um Materialien streiten, Kinder, die sich gegenseitig schlagen, Kinder, die aus dem Klassenraum abhauen, Kinder, who do not want and therefore disrupt their friends, children, the question is no use of my materials and make them broken. There are also children who wish to work like that but can not because they are disturbed by the Others. If you would like to eliminate all this chaos (in a different language), that's impossible! But in time I began to understand why the children behave this way. It is more or less a cry for attention. When the children to beat each other that this is more a sign that they have never learned to solve problems without violence. Since many of the children are often alone at home because the parents work or because they do have only one parent, which is often busy, they have not learned what it means to respect another person to have and as to the ownership of those with caution. The conditions from which the children come, are reflected in the behavior of the children again. If one is understood, would soon be much easier to deal with all the problems and difficulties. I screwed my initial requirements back and learned that the smallest changes are the same here very big changes. If, for example, it creates only teach a child that you are also problems with words and can not be solved with violence, then an incredibly huge win for all! I understood that with the holidays not play here is the focus of producing something great with the kids, because that is really important employment with the children. If it still manages to run an activity with patience at an end, so that the children end up a kind of sense of achievement, then that's a lot more value, failed as a puppet play. It is very important to focus on small advances and to enjoy it and most important is to ask through the background to understand!
In the end, I have the holiday games from day to day more fun and I had the feeling that the children are von Zeit zu Zeit immer mehr an uns gewöhnt haben und uns somit auch mehr respektiert und die Zeit genossen haben!

It's Christmas .. not!

Ich entschuldige mich hiermit als erstes, dass ich eine Ewigkeit nichts I've let hear!
I was the last few weeks despite regular school holidays very stressed out and had little time even on the weekends for me!
Christmas is soon! :) Here are taking place in Cali called novenas. This is a Catholic tradition during the Advent! Nine days before Christmas will be here in Colombia, performs daily prayers, referring to the birth of Jesus. To sing to friends and family members gather in front of an established nursery, and hear traditional Christmas carols (the villancicos, a bit like German Christmas songs for children to hear English only) and pray. Then will often be still a common food. This year, I can not easily adjust to Christmas. Even though the lights shine everywhere, we now have a Advenzkranz and even a Advenzkalender, all people are in the Christmas mood, at 07 December wonderful candles were lit in the streets (to celebrate Mary's conception) and have started the novenas, come with me the Christmas spirit because of the constant 25-30 degrees just does not feel right. It lacks the cold and the snow, my family, mulled wine, a Christmas tree, Incense, grannies cookies, moms Christmas tea and of course the Frankfurt Christmas market ... !
