Weird Weeks

Hi guys,

I hate when so much time goes by without a post. We have had a weird couple of weeks. Our computers crashed making it difficult for me to get online. George has his ipad that my mom brought him when she visited us, but I can't stand using it. I can't figure out how to type on it other than using one finger. It drives me nuts! Fortunately, George got my old laptop working again, but it's still unstable. Then we had some issues with our landlord close to our lease renewal. He wanted to raise our rent and we were looking at moving again. So, George had to start looking for a place to live which is a stressful process here. Praise the Lord the owner called last night to say he is leaving the rent as is for now. Then, Eli and I have been sick. My asthma, which has been very good for a long time, began getting worse during my pregnancy. Combined with the arrival of the hot season and all the dust being kicked up, I have been struggling to breathe. My inhalor has become less effective and for the last five days, I have had terrible asthma attacks and chest congestion. A few times I have been quite scared. I wish I had a nebulizer (asthma treatment used in the US) to help out. Lastly, Eli woke up with a high fever yesterday which has continued through today. Whenever we are ill, it's a guessing game on how to treat ourselves. Without good, reliable health care, we have no other options. George has a lot of experience with medical stuff so that is helpful. Prayer is what truly gets us through. Poor George has been stretched taking of the sickies and the chaos at home while still trying to get ministry work done (teaching at church, viewing land, meeting with officials, etc.) We sure could use your prayers as we plod through these challenges. Hopefully things will be back to normal soon!
