Medicine and the Pain it Brings

So for about two weeks now I’ve been pretty sick. It’s a come and go thing but when it’s at the “come” part…well, lets just say that It’s something that’s not comforting.

 

Everyone here has told me that when in Mexico or even other countries around the world is that  when you’re sick you’re supposed to get a shot in you butt. Well I went to the doctors twice here and yet still no shot…they made me poop in a cup for three days but that’s something that doesn’t need to be explained. So finally the leader who works with my team decided that enough is enough and that I needed to be taken to a doctor in the states. 

So I didn’t want to go in the first place mainly because 5 minutes prior me knowing that I would be going to the doctor an announcement had been made that the guys were going to play paintball.

I was dressed and ready for the occasion and then shot down. Later on I got shot up :p

 

So the doctor was a really cool dude…we even had a small discussion on our faith and how he knows that God is the ultimate healer but is also a strong believer that God uses doctors for that too. So he was really giving all the glory to the Father. After describing all of my symptoms and talking about the things that might have to take place if I get worse or if tests prove that there is something seriously wrong with me I received my shot….in the butt…and it hurt…a lot.

 

But I just prayed and God gave me some peace on the whole ordeal but that is definitely something you readers can pray for me about. 

 

This may have nothing to do with the title but I am now officially going to be growing my first beard…SO excited!!!!!
