Still sick--

Hey friends--

Again, my deepest apologies for the silence. Apparently I was not on the upswing after all. I am still sick, which is no fun in 100 degree weather. I actually spent the night last night at a local hotel so I could get some AC. (Thanks Nixon and Sandra for keeping the kiddos!)

Not to worry though, I am in contact with US (and Haitian) doctors who have covered the bases with meds and think I just have a nasty virus. I just need to let my body adjust to all the different germs and virus's that I am not accustomed to.

So, sick or not, I am going to work with Nick and Naomi tomorrow on unpacking a bit. I am hoping that rouses my spirits a bit.

Please pray for me to feel better soon. I am on day 11, and just plumb exhausted.

In other news, I have now lost somewhere between 20-25lbs, so I might actually keep a New Year's resolution to lose weight after all! (PS-- it's not worth it.)

I also ask that you keep my sister Melody and her family in your prayers-- more on that another time...

Love,
("the sickie") Gwenn

Gwenn, I am so sorry. Surely after day 11, the virus will be worn out too!
