After staying to experience at least the first week of the Vancouver Winter Olympics,On February 24th,2010 I am about to return to Ethiopia for about 10 days and travel with Tesfaye from Addis Ababa to his mother's village of Gimja Bet Maryam located up north towards Bahar Dar; the trip to the village involves a full day of travel by a combination of plane,car,and foot. His mother will see him for the first time since undergoing his miraculous surgery at Vancouver General Hospital; she has not seen him standing upright since he was 8 years old and struck with TB that ravaged his spine and left him bent horizontal to the ground. I will be posting some information, maps and pictures from that trip on this site and on http://www.tesfayesjourney.blogspot.com
