Tashia has also been helping with transportation. One of the tasks is to bring a bag of food over to Faustina, a 100-year-old Bribri woman who’s family has moved her down from the mountain to a home nearby, so family members can get to her easily

Tashia and Faustina talking with each other...
although neither speaks the other’s language,
they seemed to be communicating just fine.

Faustina, her body literally deteriorating from a diabetic condition, was asked if she wanted to go to either Don Cándido or the Clinic. She said “No doctor who is eventually going to die himself will cure me. My cure is from God.” She’s decided she’s ready to leave this world, and plans to stay right there in her chair until she does.
The day before this shot was taken, a huge tree fell over, falling into her yard and coming to rest with the tip of the uppermost branch just touching her left foot. She sat right there in her chair and watched it happen.
Not this day.
