I know that yall are all very worried, so I will first say that I'm a lot better! I woke up on Sunday morning without the fever and in a whole lot less pain. I still had swollen glands in my neck, but the fever was gone along with about 80% of the pain, and that made me really happy. As Sunday went on, I felt a lot of my strength coming back and I was even able to go next door to watch a soccer game on TV, but other than the 2 hours for the game I stayed inside my house and tried to keep my strength. Because I knew the next day was Monday.
Today when I woke up, I felt even better. My headaches were gone. I still feel and see that my glands are swollen but a noticeable amount less from the past two days. I went through my regular morning schedule and then went off to my language class. Had a very nice and smooth class, after class I had lunch at a restaurant in town and I returned home, in which I will stay in the neighbor the rest of the day.
The next couple of days I try to keep very calm and peaceful, sometimes that is very hard to do some times when you in Africa, but I will try. The next couple of days are also very important because on Thursday, the 12th, the whole Fulakunda team (4 adults and 3 children) are going to The Gambia. There we will have some team meetings, do so much needed shopping and relaxation, and get to speak some English (Gambia is a English colony). Please pray for the next couple of days so that I will be able to regain my health back to normal so I will be able to enjoy our time in The Gambia. Also pray for our travels and the many new faces and people that we will meet on this new adventure.
Thanks again, for your prayers, I have really felt them the past two days.
