PESO:

Still working on the Guatemalan widows.  This is Francisca.  I stayed with
her family every summer from 1989 until 2006.

She is my age.  Francisca could not read or write and spoke only Mam, but
her oldest daughter, Fabiana, went to school and learned to be a midwife
and a dentist.  She came back to Acal and opened a 24 hour clinic to take
care of the women and children in their remote mountain village.  Here is
Fabiana:  http://www.pbase.com/tinamanley/image/73490469

C&C greatly appreciated.
