Chris is feeling a little under the weather today. He stayed in bed all day while Chase and Rickson and I went to the beach. We tried to give him some peace and quiet so he could rest. He started on some of his antibiotics that we brought with us (thank you Dr. Esmali for sending us with great meds). As you all know, Chris doesn't fight infection very well since he does not have a spleen. Please say some prayers that he will feel better quickly! There are three adults from our group on antibiotics right now and one baby. Definitely some illness going around (we have heard from previous adoptive families that it is easy to get sick here). I feel confident that Chris will be feeling better soon, but really appreciate the continued prayers.
Well, off to bed for now. It is 7:45 pm here now and would you believe we all go to bed around 8:00 or so every night? Must be an island thing! I will write more tomorrow on our funny trip to the beach. Yokwe!

ReplyDeleteLove, Lisa
Feel better Chris! We are thinking of and praying for you!
ReplyDeleteCovered in prayer.
ReplyDeletePrayers for health. Not the place to be sick. Def use the antibiotics without question. Steer clear of the water, fresh fruit, lettuce, tomatoes. Anything thats not already cooked, canned or otherwise processed. They have diff germs there than here and being cautious w the food, even if its not a tummy thing, often helps. Remember the Payless has OTC meds like Pepto, cold meds, etc that will help a bit too. Oh and for those who are not sick, I am reminded to tell you that the ice cream cones for sale near Payless checkout are yummy. Have you had pumpkin rice yet? And you def must try the banana pie at RRE...the local bananas are diff variety than in the states. Wishing I was there with you
