tales from the top bunk

sorry so long between posts...i've come down with a nasty cold and so there's no exciting adventures to report from this weekend, unless you count going through an entire "family size" box of kleenex in 48 hours an adventure. honestly, i think i've lost at least 10 pounds in snot alone. any potential meth lab enthusiasts around here will be mightily disappointed to know that my stock of 48 sudafed tablets is almost down to zero. not a big deal since they don't seem to be helping much anyways (nyquil, on the other hand, is a lifesaver). two days in bed has given me time to plow through a lot of pleasure reading...am currently working on "into thin air" by jon krakauer, which i checked out of the ship library (don't worry, mom...i have no current plans to scale everest).

my nurse-roommate reports that peace is doing well, taking po liquids and her NG tube will be removed tomorrow. i'm hoping to feel well enough to see her myself tomorrow, though don't want to start an epidemic on the wards.

love and miss you all.

Sometimes you must take care of the caregiver. How prevalent is our common cold in Ghana? love, dee
 
Hi Jennifer!!
Have you been able to give your cold the "boot" yet"?
Am sorry that it took such a strong hold on you.
Sorry too that you may have one of my bad genes. I can barely survive without kleenex.
Rest when you can, and drink gallons of water.
Dr. Jo here - telling a real Doctor how to get well. :-)
May our Great Physician bless and heal you sweet Jennifer. Child of my child you are loved by Jesus and all of us here at home. Hugs from g'ma.
 
Jennifer-

My Grandmother (Mrs.Brumback) had me get on your blog page and read her outloud everything you currently have posted! Your Mom gave her the web address Sunday at Forest Park Community Church.

It is great of you to make it possible for those of us stuck here in the US (Pregnant, Elderly, or Cash-less) to be apart of your mission.

We will be praying on this end of the world, and you keep working (and letting God work through you) on that end of the world!

Many Blessings (we all are passing the cold-thing around here too, so don't feel like it's just because you are "in-the-line-of-fire"!

Mary Conver
ps- yes, Sam and I are expecting again in February! :-)
