Today is going to be a day of getting it together, emotionally, spiritually, and physically.\u00a0 I have one week before heading to Portland to board the plane for Zimbabwe.<\/p>\n
This last week and 1\/2 have been very difficult and sad as my dad broke his hip in the night a week ago Thursday a.m. He has had a very painful and confused recovery.\u00a0 The doctors said that no matter what a person of that age goes into the hospital for, surgery or illness, they will become confused. Dad started getting confused when early Thursday morning and has been intermittenly confused since.\u00a0 I believe it is getting worse where he is.\u00a0 I fear that he won’t survive the time until I get back but all the family is encouraging me to get out of here for a while. I am going.<\/p>\n
I picked up my Malarone malaria pills at Costco on Friday.\u00a0 They were $197.00 for a 32 day supply.\u00a0 I wish I would have talked to Joseph first as he used doxycyline at a fraction of the cost.\u00c2\u00a0 I still need to get cipro, Zithromax (Cholera) , and Doxycyline (for African Tick Bite Fever).<\/p>\n
I have only played a little this week.\u00c2\u00a0 I would play for dad but he isn’t that much for the mbira.\u00a0 My mom loves it.<\/p>\n
I heard from Patience in Zimbabwe that we need to bring money that is dated 2000 or more.\u00a0 In Zimbabwe currency expires so many feel that any currency will expire.<\/p>\n
More later..\u00a0 I am packing many things for storage as there will be many people through the house here while I am gone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
