Update about nothing, really.

I haven't been blogging at all and am sure my devoted followers are heartbroken (sarcasm) so I will write a quick little update.

Katie and our very interesting guide at the Mayan Ruins
My last couple of weeks in Honduras were great but super busy. Between preparing for two months out of the country with my patients and the house, packing, etc. there was obviously a lot happening.

The week before I left, my friend, Katie Meek, visited. She is a good friend, former roommate, and she's a nurse as well. It was so much fun to have her there! It was incredibly encouraging, since she is a great encourager by nature, but also because it was uplifting to have an old friend there with me to see what I do, AND understand what I see from the medical standpoint.

Now I'm back in the states, and it has been great to see everyone! I'm so blessed that I was able to spend Thanksgiving with my family, to spend time with my best friend (Becky) before her (and Drew's) wedding, and that I'm getting to stay through Christmas!

Thanksgiving with the family:) And Milo, the cat.
The love, support and encouragement I have received from everyone has been humbling and overwhelming, so thank you for that! I certainly had no shortage of blessings to talk about at Thanksgiving this year.
