I am now writing to ALL of you the events of this past month. First, after advice from Dr. Bob Snyder from my church in PA, it was recommended that I get a biopsy done of my thyroid nodules. So, on the 19th of Sept., I headed for Budapest, a 7 hour train ride, to get it done. PTL – just received the results back this week and everything is fine. I am still feeling well and energetic even after being off thyroid medicine for 6 weeks. Go figure! Still on the heart and sleep med, though.
Moving forward now.... when it is the Lord’s timing, it is the Lord’s timing. Transferred all the equipment to the hospital 2 weeks ago and in the last 2 weeks, we have been busy arranging, organizing and setting things up in the room. Have even tested some patients already! The testing is so new for everyone that I have a roomful every time we do it!
The specialized ABR equipment for testing children
October is full of happenings – first of all, it has been two years this month since coming here! I am also expecting my missions pastor, Tom Walsh, this week from the 13-15th. Looking forward to that. Then, on the 17th-22nd, I will be heading to Spain for a little holiday, meeting my good friend, Gail Smith, in Pamplona where her daughter lives and the first grandson just arrived! Then at the end of October, Mike Webb will be arriving with his daughter, Rebekah, for a 2-week visit here in Romania. He had news this week that he is bringing two fantastic pieces of equipment with him. My cup overfloweth!
Also, a little techie advance. I now have a American phone line in Virginia (where my mom lives). If you would like to make a phone call to Romania…all it would cost you is the cost to Virginia. The number is (703) 879-4893 and comes through my computer. Pretty neat, huh?
Plans are still in place for furlough starting in December, sometime before Christmas.
