Rachel has been on the go from day one here. We were home on a Monday nite with the new kids and she went on Wed. nite to youth with our other teens. She is loving life here in the US. She has a strong personality and is very outgoing. She loves school and church. She will help out and also loves to ride bikes and roller blade... these kids are outside all the time moving ,jumping running and riding. She was positive for her tb ppd( the girl's grandfather and mom both died of tb) so their exposure was very high. None of them have any symptoms and on Monday they will be the first people in the state of WV to be tested for tb using a new blood test called Quantiferon Gold-tb. It will be able to differentiate some for us and we will know if we will be doing the 9 month INH therapy with them as we did with Leah. Should know by the end of next week.
