Dorothy Uhlig arrived in Thailand late 1950 or early 1951 as the first new recruit to our small mission staff in Chiangkham, Thailand. Our own family together with Imogene Williams had located there in May 1950. Upon her arrival our family moved to another rented house. She and Imogene then shared the original house and she soon set up clinic there. She was a registered nurse and had taken special midwifery training. That was a special blessing to us because in June 1951 she, with Imogene’s assistance, delivered our fourth child, Jeni. Two years later she delivered our youngest child, David. Over the years since then she delivered many babies and treated thousands of Thai and those of many other ethnicities. During the years in which our family lived in the Mien mountain village (1952-1960) she and Imogene often purchased and packed supplies and mail to send up to us by Thai carrier. Mel and June Byers also helped often with that chore. All of them visited us in the mountains as well as ministering in other mountain and lowland villages. When the refugee camp near Chiangkham was first opened about 1976 and refugees first arrived there many were sick and especially with malaria and/or pink eye. No doctor had yet arrived at the camp. So during each week Dorothy had her staff prepare medicine for those and other ailments in small packets. Then on Saturdays when her clinic in town was normally closed she and we would go to the camp to distribute the medicine as seemed necessary. Time constraints did not allow for lengthy consultations but hundreds were treated as best as possible each week. Her Chiangkham “Christian Clinic” became widely known as a place of healing where costs were very minimal. Although she was not an MD she was lovingly and respectfully referred to as “Khun Mor Do-ro-thi” (honorable doctor). Many came to the Lord through that ministry. She went regularly to Ban Sope Waen, which was at first a village for those with leprosy. There she patiently and fearlessly treated the sores on feet, arms, legs of those afflicted. With such care and proper medications the disease itself has been practically eradicated there. She was constantly involved in the evangelistic work and we had good cooperation with her and other fellow missionaries who arrived later. Each Sunday she would be in a Hmong, Mien, or Thai church to witness and serve wherever needed. She was much involved in the CYDC dorm for tribal students, the House of Refugee for at risk girls, the Home of Blessing for Hmong students, the Chiangkham annual Christian conference, and other ministries local and national in Thailand. She was very well disciplined in all her activities and so humbly and faithfully served wherever she saw a need. I am so grateful for the privilege of working alongside of her and look forward to happy meetings with her in heaven. CW
