NewsLady Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 Before a group of good Boquete folks got together, Janeth's husband Eduardo had to carry her about 1/4 km to a neighbor's bathroom. He bathed her in an outdoor faucet in the yard. You see, Janeth is in a wheel chair and lives in a very small house up a muddy path. Now, the project is complete. Many folks contributed money. Some contributed faucets and sinks and toilets and tile. Some like Lyn Hall contributed material and her welding skills to craft a frame for the bathroom sink and some grab bars for the toilet and the shower. Joe Culleton was the tireless lead engineer and common laborer on the project. Ken Faust, master plumber supervised all the plumbing. In addition to the bathroom, the guys also installed eaves troughs and a downspout because they found the rain was leaking into the bedroom. They also added an additional outdoor sink. The only thing still needed is a shower chair and we're hoping somebody in the community will come forward to donate that. If that person is you, please drop it off at the Handicap Foundation across the street from Chopsticks Chinese Restaurant in Alto Boquete. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
