NewSpring Foot-washing/Jigger Removal

**WARNING** This video contains graphic content.
The NewSpring medical missions team doing foot-washing and jigger removal in Depatus (The Segera area).
A jigger, scientific name Tunga penetrans, is a sand flea that is brought about by lack of hygiene and breeds in dirty areas. The impregnated female Tunga embeds itself in the skin under the toenails and feeds on the skin of its host. A jigger-infested foot is completely disfigured; the afflicted can barely walk due to the pain from ruptured flesh. The resulting social isolation in turn creates a sense of trauma and reduced self-esteem.

I laughed when he mentioned his god.

Also, "god" isn't helping them at all, you are man. Humility is a virtue, but give yourself some credit.

[Konform2zoidberg]

I hope they also brought those people some shoes, otherwise it may very well be for naught.

@yourallbrainwashed if you don't believe in Jesus/God... you don't choose the devil, the devil chooses you.

[yourallbrainwashed]

@archuletajustin yes ,i know that christians believe that if you dont believe in god then that means you automaticly choose the devil. so yes i do know about fear and control, religion uses it all the time!

[yourallbrainwashed]

@101bojangels also, to get a better understanding of my view on god , watch youtube video titled GEORGE CARLIN RELIGION IS BULLSHIT . please try to watch it with an open mind. and before you take me the wrong way, i just wanted to let you know that i really really tried to believe in god, but the more i thought about it, the more i found out its all about fear and control!
