Malaria'd!!!

Dear Friends,
Melissa and I have both been sick with a bad cough for around two weeks now. Yesterday when we woke up we both had some other additional symptoms including fevers, so we ended up going to a clinic and getting tested for Malaria, which we both have. Melissa’s is a bit worse than mine and she is really not feeling well at all, although today is definitely better than yesterday so far. Malaria is very common here and fairly simple to treat… the doctor gave us some pills that will hopefully take care of it. We appreciate your prayers for a quick recovery, and that the Malaria will be completely gone from our systems. We are both very disappointed that we aren’t able to spend time with the kids at the festival today, and we will likely cancel our class for tomorrow and maybe Thursday as well. Thanks for your prayers.
Sarah
