Back in the Saddle

Today was our first day back in Quiche. Yesterday was our appointment with our doctor in Guatemala City. Everything still looks good with the baby. Yes, he's still a boy.

As time gets closer, we will probably look to schedule something, since waiting for Heidi to go into labor then trying to drive 4-6 hours to the hospital is probably not the way to go.

Heidi was at Buen Samaritano today and one of her delinquent patients showed up, bleeding. She was admitted and will be operated on tomorrow, even though Heidi isn't really scheduled to work tomorrow.

In the morning, we'll be at ASELSI, then Heidi will go operate and Matt will continue some studio work he started this morning. He would probably work some more tonight, but studio work and Heidi's current headache don't work too well together!

Thanks to some "above and beyond the call of duty" work by Virginia at ASELSI, both Osni and Fredy got their cleft lips repaired this week in Antigua. We can't wait to see them and we'll definitely post pictures!!!

The internet is still out at the house - maybe it'll get repaired later this week. We're not holding our breaths, but we're down the street at an internet cafe right now. Yes, even here in Quiche, there are hi-speed internet cafes...

Well, time to go cook dinner. More later!

Thanks for making the extra efforts to keep us informed, even though the internet is not working at the house.

So pleased to hear that our grandson continues to do well!!

God bless you all and Heidi's surgery on Thursday.

Love and hugs, Mom

That is great news on cleft palate kids Osni and Fredy. You and the Harvey's at ASELSI make such a good team. Since you are at the Fickers this weekend, how about an update on their plane?
