Update on our sick students....

I just talked with Josh who is now heading for the airport in Manilla. Some of you might have been praying for the situations at hand....and some of you may not know what is happening. Things alway get interesting on outreach.

MJ - MJ came down with pnemonuia and was in the hospital for 5 days. She is now back at the base and is slowly getting better. Her grand-daughter Kelly is staying with her while the rest of the team is out doing ministry.

Triston - Triston has been diagnosed with Dengue Fever and is in Hospital in Davao. His team has postponed traveling to the outer regions of the area till after Christmas. He’s feeling a lot better today, and his temperature has dropped dramatically. That also means his platelet level has also dropped a lot and he may have to have blood transfusion, which apparently will prevent internal bleeding. The doctors are monitoring him very closely and he has someone from the team by his side 24-7. They say that he should be out within 3 days, which is great news.

Misty - Back in New Zealand, I was hit in the eye by a flying champagne cork at work. I was lucky and it hit the "eyebrow bone" and not the eye. I think this is the last time I follow company policy of offering champage to our clients. It should be a bit black and blue by tomorrow. Perfect timing for Christmas pics :>

As you can see we need your prayers. Thanks for being involved in our little journey.
