Slow Recovery

Gusi seems to be doing a little bit better today. He hasn't had a fever so far and he had some yogurt and a banana this morning. And after a crazy night of sleep deprivation on all our parts, I hope he gets some rest today at nap time.

When I'm not thinking of Gusi--which is rare these days--I'm giving thanks that we have the means to take care of him. We have access to well-trained medical staff, we have money to buy medicines and we are two educated parents who know how to help him get better; so many children here in Africa don't have that.

I'm starting to count my holiday blessings already.
