Want to know what is not fun? Being sick! What is worse? Being sick on your own: no mom, no sissy, no Maxwell, no home-stay mom (she is in the capital this week visiting her kids), so no one to take care of you. Yesterday I woke up with a fever and the worst stomach ache - it was killer. I could not eat anything all day and I still taught my classes and had my new high school girls youth group (freshmen) at night. They knew I did not eat all day and made me a soup. Now I was a little skeptical...what were they going to make?! Was this some kind of Dominican myth or urban legend? The anser: chicken noodle soup! Some things never change :) haha. Now as much as I want my loved ones next to me taking care of me, it was nice to have someone make soup for me, even if I was only able to eat a few bites. The girls stayed with me until I ate the soup and brought me back to my house and got the neighbors to check in on me. Today was a full day of teaching but I took a fever reducer and woke up feeling better today and have been able to eat. I am feeling much better and will be taking tomorrow easy! I promise!
Prayer Request: no more getting sick! It is scary! Third world country with little to no near by health care! Gracias!
