Well so much for staying healthy! I got pretty sick on Friday morning...my stomach decided that it did not like this food. AT ALL! I ended up having to go to the clinic in San Salvador and seeing a doctor there. Even though I was sick and miserable, it was pretty cool to see the health care system here. For some reason, I was pushed right to the front of the line and saw a doctor almost immediately...probably because I´m blonde haha. I also had to speak Spanish to the doctor and everything, I was a little afraid I would accidently mess up my words and tell him to amputate my leg or something but it all went well! But yeah I got some medicine and I´m not 100% yet, but almost, keep praying though!
Even though I was sick, I was definitely not going to miss out on the trip to the beach!! So I went of course and ended up sleeping in a hammock for the majority of the time, but it was wonderful! So relaxing. The beach was so beautiful. All of the sand is black, I love it! Hopefully we get to go back before I leave!
Tomorrow I start week two in the centers! Thanks for all of your support and feedback, it means so much to me!
Oh and for a cucaracha (cockroach) update...there were two in our room today...can´t find either of them, just great! haha
LOVE YA!
Samantha,
ReplyDeleteGlad that you are feeling better. Well you have been gone a week, and we are praying for you always. My heart aches cause I miss you, but my heart rejoices, cause you are in the midst of God's will. Funny how one can have two extreme emotions. I know that the Lord understands. I am thankful we can communicate through phone and computer. Keep your eyes on Jesus, and those precious ones you are serving. Be the Lord's vessel to minister HIS unconditional love. Remember we love you!
Love,
MOM and Dad and JO too
