Pray Now Zimbabwe

3/9
Alright, so I’d say it’s about time for an update on my spiritual walk – seeing as this entire trip to Zimbabwe was sparked by my desire to know God on a deeper level. I have thus far hit rock bottom in my faith and lost all belief in a Higher Power and now am [...]

It feels so great to be alive and kicking once again! Sunday played out to be a lazy day filled with sitting out in the sun and listening to music/reading since I hadn’t much seen the outdoors for some time. It was hot, but much needed. Then Juliet’s boyfriend, Donald, came over so I visited [...]

Wow, who in the world knew so many people would be interested in my restroom activities! To answer the numerous questions, yes, whatever the doctor prescribed was effective. I spent an immeasurable amount of my time yesterday on the toilet. Thank God no one was home yesterday except for me. I was embarrassed even just [...]

It’s Friday and I’m stuck at home once again. This time is for a good reason though. Yesterday was a continuation of my African healthcare endeavors. Now, I have already visited Dr. Stack and that went well, gotten my lab work done, and then I had to go see another doctor that Dr. Stack referred [...]

Today has been fairly uneventful thus far. This morning we left for the Institute a little later than usual – around 8 am or maybe a little bit earlier. The roads were clear of traffic and we made it to town in good timing. We stopped along the way to pick up some Mealie Meal [...]

Today was a success! I wish I could say the same about the weekend, but I guess that should’ve been expected. Juliet was gone the entire weekend – Saturday she spent all day at her church as usual then Sunday she and her boyfriend met with her “Auntie” to go through the traditional process that [...]

Oh the joys of Zimbabwean medical assistance. It’s only fair that my experience here wouldn’t be complete unless I had to endure the medical system as well; I just didn’t realize it’d be so early on. I have had some issues that keep me from actually doing any solid work and I’m constantly feeling [...]

I’m sure it’s fairly obvious that I think too much. Time and time again it’s been stated or if not, it should have been. I think that’s why I try to stay so busy all the time or find different things to obsess about or preoccupy my mind. I don’t watch many movies because [...]

So I don’t know what the deal is, but I’ve been sick AGAIN. Monday I woke up not feeling too great, but figured it was just because I was tired or something and as the day progressed I’d get to feeling better. We did the usual – stopped in town to pick up a [...]

Yesterday I had plans with Treat to attend a dinner party with her. I was trying so hard to not get my hopes up, but it was really difficult at the same time since my social outings are few and far between. I really miss having interaction with people of my general age group, but [...]
