I think after about two weeks, this is the first day I’ve actually started feeling better rather than worse. Ok, not a LOT better, but any improvement is welcomed! For a while there I was waking up every day with a new and strange symptom. 
But you don’t want to hear about me. Shari is I think on the mend too, though she sounds worse then ever, having somewhat lost her voice. I think Nathanael is getting better too. We actually sent him to school today, and I think he was all right but he looked pretty exhausted when we got home. I think he’s in his bed now.
Shari reminded me that we were really sick back in October. We haven’t to my memory had infections like this before - probably a combination of having young kids in school (whose favourite game at recess is to pass around germs) and perhaps strange Mexican strains we’re not used to. (Maybe that last one isn’t valid in these days of frequent travel, but it sounds good to blame it on some mighty tropical bug!)
So we’re still trying to get the rest and recovery we need and pack at the same time. We’re working out other details such as finding movers, checking on details about Hannah’s home school (with the office in Canada), making sure the kids do their homework, figuring out when to cancel and start services in Cuernavaca and Ixtapaluca, and some other complex things that I won’t go into now. So I’d better run and get to it!

3 of us are sick. As usual, Super Hannah is the healthy one - may she remain so!
The rest of us have a real nasty infection. Nathanael and I went to the doctor on Saturday, and I’m glad we did. We almost didn’t . . . when we were all ready to go, the van didn’t start. Not sure why, but the battery was dead (totally). Toby was kind enough to give us a boost, and we did make it to the doctor. I almost didn’t bother to see him myself - we were going for Nathanael’s sake - but I did.
Anyway, we had some kind of weird infection here there and everywhere, including our ears, so we got some medicine. As I said, I’m glad we both saw him, since I’ve been generally getting worse (today included).
Today Shari got hit with (presumably) the same thing.
So, the state of affairs is this. I want to and need to sleep. Shari wants to and needs to sleep. Nathanael needs to sleep. And Hannah is healthy but tired - she could use some sleep too.
So if we all do what we want to, the kids will run wild!
Anyway, we’d appreciate your prayers as we try to get everyone back to health, and keep Hannah healthy. We don’t want anyone to get any worse. And Mom and Dad have to keep running a household!

If you want to see some of our crazy goings on in May, be sure to visit our photo gallery. We have a special album for Hannah’s birthday, and one for Nathanael’s party. There’s also a video summary of each party in there, so you can get a feel for it.
Also, be sure not to miss the photos and video of the Mother’s Day program at Colegio del Bosque. Well, it was the Colegio del Bosque program, but it actually took place at a theatre downtown known as Cine Morelos. The video is here.
What a month! |
Important: Sorry, we had some problems with the photo gallery. We are fixing it up. I think the above pictures and video are back in the album now.
