I decided I would never return to Kenya or do lots of other things I think my spouse Carl and I are plenty young enough to do unless I had knee surgery. So Nov. 1 I entered Howard County General Hospital in Columbia, MD, where I was treated well, altho' I am now happy to be home recuperating. I have had many get-well wishes from near and far, electronically, snail mail, and phone, and great attention and (for which non-cooking Carl gives great thanks) food from UUCF church members and friends.
"I just finished today's duties, then got online. It was a wet day. Driving on mud is like driving on your roads with snow. So good and happy to hear that you are doing well.
I left home yesterday. All is well. The camp is less busy for now but expecting a busy time before Christmas.
Let's hope for that great day when I will hold you by the hand, Carl standing next to you as I introduce you to people of Oltorotua at the site of the well."
I'm not up to par yet but look forward to moving ahead on helping obtain funding for a well and latrines, which his village will manage and maintain, for his village of Oltorotua.
