Face of Famine.

A month or so ago I put photo's on my blog and on Facebook, showed my friends and parents, an disturbing image of a young baby suffering from malnutrition due to the African drought.
You can see that image here.

The first time I saw his picture I couldn't help but cry. It was shocking.

I can't wait to go to Kenya myself in January to do my bit!
