As most all of you have heard, I have been under the weather these past couple days. I am feeling a little bit better today mostly now just have sinus congestion, headache, fatigue, and cough. No more fever or throwing up, so thats good. Thankyou to all who are praying/sending good thoughts over my way. Yesterday I missed doing prenatals with the midwives in the landfill area, but in a way glad I didn't go because when the midwives got back they told me that they went to one of our patients houses, and her deceased grandfather who had apparently passed away 3 days beforehand was still laying there in her house! Wow! I don't know how I would of reacted. What do you do in that kind of situation? We will check up on her again next week because she has very high blood pressure, and at 18 weeks pregnant we were still not able to hear a baby's heart beat. She is definitely in my prayers.
Today I was supposed to go help Cecille and Joks paint the temporary birth center, but they had to go do it without me. I will be moving in there within the next couple of days and do not know when/if I will be able to get internet connection. The internet guys here are like the cable guys in the states, where you wait at home all day for them, and then they don't even show up! I hope all of you back at home are doing well, and I miss you guys! For some reason, me laying here sick makes me miss my family even more.
