The LONG trip home

After a week of great lessons, I would be lying if I said I wasn't ready to go home. About two days into Haiti, I began feeling awful. I thought for sure it was a combination of the unbearable heat, lack of sleep and the different food but I really wasn't feeling like I wanted to do a whole lot. My stomach was a mess, and I ached all over. I was really struggling with feeling an obligation to keep going. A idea that it would be selfish for me not to push through. Within 48 hours of me going down, the domino effect began. In Haiti, it was just two of us. By the time we reached the Dominican, two others hopped on the bandwagon. By the time we were back in the states there wasn't a whole lot left of our team. We are blessed to have doctors that can give us medication to get us healthy.
