Well, we've had a good old case of Traveler's diarrhea, pretty much the whole team. First Haddi, then me, now almost everyone else. It's never a good thing when your rumbling stomach awakens you at night. I had to get out of bed around 2:30 and was then in and out of the bathroom the rest of the night. I'll let you imagine the details, but it wasn't pretty.
I was touched by several good friends and my lovely wife today as they stopped to pray for me and help nurse me back to health. I'm not used to being in that position of vulnerability, but I think God was doing something good through it. After the Gi stuff came significant fatigue, fever, and muscle aches and pains. I'm now feeling a lot better but weak and blessed to have such a caring wife and friends.
Tomorrow we hope to feel well enough to go into Jacmel and the tent city and help out any way we can. We're praying these people who have suffered so much already will be taken care of.
Blessings,
Jim
