- On 10/12 in the screening visits in AK a mother of 4 years child said AH you are the team who I attended the green table grocer in Besan KG with my son. I also attended the AS about growth monitoring. The woman said I like to thank you a lot and your colleague for such activities which have a great effect on the children and the mothers. My son now becomes very aware about personal hygiene, and after the green table activity he becomes very aware about washing everything before eating it. He said as we washed with the Miss in the KG. the mother keep on saing that if she bring any thing for her son to eat he asked her is it washed? The HWs were very happy with such a story from the mother because it means that the children not only listen to what they say but work for applying it at home.
- On 29/11 Mrs. Rowayda Abo yousif was a 2nd trimester pregnant woman. She didn't take iron supplementation, because she had a thought that these iron tablets will be the reason for the baby distortion. The CHWs introduced to her the proper health messages about anemia contradictions on the mother and on the baby and how to prevent anemia through nutrition and iron supplementations. During the follow up visit on 29/12, the mother said "I was waiting for you; I went to the clinic and took the iron tablets." She goes on saying that from the first visit her daughter kept on saying to her Mum; don't take the iron with the milk not to let them have a fight in your body. The mother said now I have a health worker at home she keeps on reminding me with the iron and how to take it.
- During working at kherbet aladas it was so hard to find aplace to held health education sessions but during one of our sessions at Bonat almstakbal socity one of the mothers told us that she knows a lot about our work, messages and how we want to help the community and also she told us that she is ready to open her home to have our sessions when ever we want and she also will help us to bring the mothers.
- we were telling story at (13 -12) at kg about anemia and the CHWs talked about how drinking tea with food make the blood very week and they explain that to the children and there were child called (Salah alhams) and he was lessening very carefully and when the CHWs visit the kg next day he told them that he stopped drinking tea at all and replace it with milk and eggs and when they visits his home at 15-12 and met his mother she told them that he had never drunk tea since the time that he listened to our story .
