I’m combining these two days because I don’t have much to report. I had a rough night Sunday night, and had a hard time sleeping, but finally drifted off around 1:30am… I ended up sleeping 10 hours. That’s pretty unusual for me. I rarely sleep more than six hours a night, but clearly I needed it. Lewis gave a Bible study in the afternoon, and then Lewis and I (along with 20 or so of the brethren) jumped in the bus that the Blantyre congregation owns and Daniel Ringo drove around the Blantyre district dropping folks off.

It’s a huge benefit to the brethren to have this bus. Without transport the brethren would likely not be able to attend as often because of the cost of public transport and the long distances they need to walk.

I felt better on Monday evening, and I slept well. Tuesday was another slow day, I tried to catch up on some work (I’ve been working this whole trip, but I’m less efficient than normal because the internet is not very good here). Lewis took a walk with Daniel around the neighborhood, went for a haircut and both Monday and Tuesday went to multiple pharmacies to try and find an anti-nausea medication for me.

I brought Dramamine, but only one little bottle because I was told I would be able to find it locally in Malawi. Unfortunately, that information was totally wrong. Though Lewis was able to find one antihistamine that can be used for anti-nausea, I couldn’t take it because I’m on an anti-malarial and they are contraindicated (can cause damage to the heart if taken together). So I’ll suffer through the nausea.
