Who wouldn’t want a period of time devoted to rest…in
a country you’ve never been to…with all (or at least almost all) expenses paid? Well…depends!
Tomorrow morning we pack our bags into our car and
Fred, Lord willing, will drive us to Entebbe airport to catch a 7:35 a.m.
flight to Johannesburg, South Africa—Ruth even flies Business Class! Four hours later we will be met at the
airport by reps from Sunninghill Hospital and be transported to a room waiting
for Ruth. They will do an assessment
including x-rays, etc. and make a decision what to do with her fractured left
hip. As far as we can tell the fracture
occurred more than 3 weeks ago but 3 x-rays and an MRI did not pick it up until
this past Monday yet another x-ray in a different position revealed it. We thank God for our
Mission and all they have done to support us and put us in touch with Insurance
and logistics. We leave our work here in
Uganda in God’s Hands. Esther and Chris
will carry on the VOICE ministry. Thanks
for your prayers during this “unwanted vacation.” We will keep in touch as we are able.

| Ruth's "new toys"! The cane was used to aid walking during the almost 3 weeks prior to the x-ray that revealed the fracture. Let's say that she's not very coordinated with either the crutches or wheelchair...but there isn't any choice! |
