We're off to see the Wizard

Debbie is back from her vacation and I already feel a greater sense of calm. In a few moments, I'll be getting into the truck to head to FAME, the medical clinic in Karatu. I spent much of last night coughing loud enough that Mama Upendo got up to make breakfast for the kids for us, and yelled at them to be kind to me because I'm having some health issues (from what I can tell from my very minimal grasp on Swahili, and the fact that every child thanked me when I served them).

Things this morning didn't feel any better, socially, but I'm heading out, and it will be good to get away. When I return, I will update the blog so that all you friends, fans, and stalkers can know the condition of my health and stop clinging to the tissue boxes. :)
