Well today is the big day to find out where Lisa will be for the next 6 months. We are currently in the waiting phase and hopefully will know more within the next 3-4 hours. We traveled to Guatemala City last night getting here around 8:30pm due to some road construction where we missed the time to make it through. So we had to wait - bummer.
Over the last few days we have received some new visitors - Matt, Jenna and Reese Cope and also the parents of Sheri K. Matt Cope is a 4th year medical student who is here for a 2 week intership. He spent the last week with the surgical group in Montellano and is spending this week with us. It turns out that Lisa knew Jenna when she was little as her father Jim Reese was the College minister at the University Church of Christ in Austin while she was at UT. Lisa and I also had a few marriage counseling sessions with him before we got married.
The surgery trip in Montellano finished up on Thursday and the team headed to Antigua on Friday where we met up with them for dinner and visiting. They attended 70ish patients and performed 90ish procedures which is a busy week. We got to see some friends from before and also Nicole and her new husband Eric. Nicole worked here last year for 6 weeks doing a Physician Assistant Internship.
Lisa finished most of her research project on Sunday night about 2am and then we put the final touches on it yesterday afternoon and emailed it in. The emailing process was long and drawn out since our internet service is not very quick, but we did get it sent. Probably about 100 pages printed by the time you would print everything.
More news later today! Stay in touch and keep praying for good news.
