Something new

Today was pretty exciting.

I got to see a blood smear positive for malaria. Unfortunately, that slide was mine. The techs in the lab tell me that this is Zambia's way of welcoming me. I have not been feeling quite up to snuff the past day and a half or so, turns out there is a good reason. So I am drinking lots of fluids and I just started a malaria treatment regimen. Hopefully, I will have it licked soon.

I hope that you are all well. Have a fabulous day!

Plasmodium falciparum

  2. Speechless, but praying really hard to the Creator of the universe who is also very loving and in control. :) Momma xOxOxoxOxOx

  3. You've been sick 3 times in my life.... This makes 4. You'll be better by sunup.

    Love you brother, hope they have better medicine than malaria prevention.

  4. Let us know the treatment process.

    We trust the Lord did not receive this as a surprise. DO what the doctors order and get plenty of rest.

    I am agreeing with Chris for a very speedy recovery.

    I love you,
