My First Battle

I've had my first battle against Haitan sickness. It honestly caught me off guard. What I thought was a little stomach bug turned into a fever and stomach cramps which left me pretty dehydrated. Praise God I live with a nurse practitioner! After some IV fluids, antibiotics, Tylenol, and a couple days rest, I am feeling much better. God used this a humbling experience for me. I've always been a really healthy person and rarely get sick. Before coming to Haiti I placed alot of security in my health and thought to myself that I would never get sick in Haiti. I learned for myself, that God truly is the giver and taker of health and I shouldn't boast in my good health or think that it's something I've done to make me healthy. It really is a gift from Him.
