Unless God has something completely unexpected up his sleeve, we did our last clinic in Guatemala (at least on this go-round) today. We were in our solo clinic in Chicabracan. The next time anyone is there will be on September 1 (thanks Katie!!!).
Two of our patients actually broke down and cried. Isaac cried, too, but for different reasons. It's a good thing, for him, that we're leaving at this point. He's pretty much "all done" with clinic.
Luckily, there weren't too many SICK (read: contagious) people there today, so Matt took Isaac outside for a little while and let him play with some of the patients. They love his blue eyes and his waving good-bye and his game where you tell him to say "mama" and he says "papa", then cracks up laughing. We can see that...
Meanwhile, Duane, Aaron, David, Craig, Joe, and Juan all came over to the house to work on the roof on the addition. It's nice to still be able to see them, and to be able to return a meal. We've eaten so many meals at their house that it's a privilege to serve them every now and then. David, Craig, Joe, and Juan are spending the night tonight and will be back to work in the morning. The goal is to have the house dried in by Friday so Roy and his guys can start running heater duct.
After lunch, we drove to Nueva Santa Catarina to meet with the Savior's Sons team, then to their hotel in Totonicapan for dinner. Thanks for dinner, guys!
After dinner, they prayed for us and for our trip back to the US (which they are helping to answer their own prayer by carting a bunch of our stuff back for us).
One very special member of that team is Dr. Street. It was SO nice to be able to see him and we got a really neat pic with him and Roy...
Tomorrow we'll be here at the house, helping the boys, and starting to pack some.
