10/27/14: Day 238: Surprise!

Della didn’t sleep last night at all due to the pain in her chest. She called the doctor and she said Della needed to come in today. Della went with her mom at 12:30 to the doctor while the rest of us walked around Ataco to do a little more site seeing. We all walked up to the cross that overlooks the city. On our way back down, we met Bryan and he walked with us till he got to his school. Then we ate lunch near the park and then went back home. As we were walking in, I noticed that the door had not been properly locked, but thankfully no one had bothered anything. Della got back from the doctor around 4:30 and she said that she now has two abscesses. The infection is continuing to get out of hand. At this point we made the decision that it would be best to send Della back to the States with family that is visiting to receive treatment for this before even more drastic measures have to be taken. All day, I had been struggling and praying about a decision that I had to make. When I got on Skype, I found out the decision was now moot! It is amazing how God answered this prayer, not in the way that I asked, not in the way that I thought possible, but in a way that is absolutely best. So long story short… I am now able to go home with Della to help her in getting medical care instead of having to wait here. We now have a lot of work to get done in just a few short days to get ready. We will be coming home on this Saturday!!!
