A Drastic Change of Pace

So so much has happened this past week I have had no chance to blog, but now I do but I dont know for how long so Im gonna try to be quick about it. First, last monday I started having stomach problems, then they went away so I could wish Jonathan a happy birthday, then they came back with a vengeance and I had to go to the hospital I work at as a patient. It wasnt very bad, I got better midday but i still had to continue with rehydration therapy so I started walking around the hospital with an iv stand. Suffice it to say, I had to change families later that day because on top of that, the hives never went away. Naturally because this Monday i was finally able to see the dermatologist and he told me that i actually was having an allergic reaction to mites, so now im having to take medicine for that too. I am now living in the city of Riobamba instead of the countryside, although I aready went back to visit my family there once and plan to do so again. Tomorrow Im off to latacunga to visit a friend who studied in the us for a year about a couple years ago, stayed with Jacob and his family. It is a small world after all, I guess. Especially since yesterday I went even farther outside of Riobamba with a Japanese health organization to do a workshop about nutrition. Just about every point of the day there were three different languages flying around, four if you count quichwa, an indigenous language. Speaking of language, tomorrow Ill be starting to teach a series of english classes at a school higher up in the mountains. I hope to work health concepts into them of course. With all the moving around I havent been able to have much time on the internet, nor do I plan to have much time in the coming weeks, although id like to find one day to just sit down and upload pictures and video. Anyway, phew, looks like I did have time after all. Time for Facebook.
