So in my current communications specialist assignment, i bump into this extra ordinary gentleman – Dr. Joseph Murimi, Founder and Director Save A Life – at the ongoing US iHOPE Foundation sponsored one week Medical Camp in Uasin Gishu County, Kenya.
I admit I encounter and come across many many people in life’s journey, but very few truly impress me. The energy this man exuberates is simply infectious. In the midst of a difficult but successful Medical Camp, seeing all the trauma, pain, uncertainty, and hopelessness in the eyes of suffering men, women, children, this man’s faith in healing truly edifies my spirit!
Dr. Murimi, a former journalist turned medic, with a human touch, walks the length and breathe of Kenya, identifying people experiencing extreme medical conditions and cannot afford quality healthcare, and opening access for them to get free medical treatment.
His connection with iHOPE Foundation CEO Amy Pajnik has seen 10 needy Kenyans prepped to recieve life changing surgery at the ongoing Uasin Gishu Burnt Forest District Hospital Medical camp, that was graced and recieved the attention of Governor Jonathan Bii and his entire Health sector apparatus.
I truly hope that I keep on bumping into many more humble, upright, positive energy, always smiling Kenyans/Humans like Dr. Murimi, a man of faith, a man of peace.
God bless you sir.
