Ok so a the week I got my new comp
I was feeling sick. I was having on and off fevers and super bad body
aches. Then I started getting rashes. So I knew that something was
wrong. Thankfully I know what the symptoms are for Dengue because I had
almost all of them. So my companion and I had to go to MLC for a meeting
and I was just looking like crap and not feeling good. Sister Aquino
said as soon as I get back to the area to get checked out before other
symptoms come. So I did got to the hospital and tested positive to
dengue fever. So I got admitted and was in the hospital for 3 days. They
had to monitor my blood platelet levels because that is the next stage
of dengue. Thankfully I caught it early and got on taken care of before
it got worse. I was really lucky with my case of dengue. I was very
thankful to the Elders who gave me a blessing and for the really awesome
doctor who when out of his way to monitor me because he knew I am far
away from home and wanted to make sure I wasn't going to freak out.
(little did he know I have spent plenty of time in the hospital) But I
was very thankful to him. Everyone in the whole hospital knew of some
white girl and black girl staying in the hospital. I had lot of
missionary visitors. Anyway I was able to be discharged after 3 days and
later that week I started back into work. The sickness and going to MLC
made it so I was out of work for 10 days. MY companion and I were
thankfully to be able to get back to work.
Just
so you all know I am now back to 100% and ready to go again. Also this
last week I was able to skype my family for the last time! It was so
great to see them and talk with them.
Thank you all for your love and prayers for me. I love you all.
