Studies continue - received new audiometer!

Of course, always loads to share. This month I have not been seeing hearing aid patients since I do not have any more hearing aids! It is giving me an opportunity to seek out some other, new sources of hearing aids, to research starting a non-profit foundation and possibly to switch my model of dispensing donated hearing aids to purchasing low-cost, hearing aids and extending the price to the patients. We will see. I move forward only as the Lord shows me – ‘cos He knows I tread where I hath not gone before! Plus freeing up time has given me more time to study – less than 2 weeks left for this course! A little road trip with the new Baby will be in order immediately following! Suceava here I come!

A wonderful praise – the Missoula Rotary Club donated a wonderful, NEW audiometer to me and the project. Thanks Missoula Rotary! I am chomping at the bit to get it out of customs. After 2 weeks it is still there and I know we are almost over the bureaucratic hump! One day I will tell you how many papers I had to prepare in order to get it out of customs! I am sure I will be able to apply in the future what I am learning about Romanian paperwork. Just pray that there are no costs and I get it VERY SOON in the next day or two! Thanks!

Please be praying with me for my father’s comfort and care as he undergoes chemotherapy there in the Philippines for non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, that the uncomfortable reactions to the chemotherapy drugs will dissipate quickly and that he can get through the courses of chemotherapy with few side effects, as well as for the comfort of the hearts of all my sisters, his wife, Imelda, and myself during this time. I just found out he is not covered under Philippine health insurance.
