Malaria

This is Josh's mom.  Last Friday, Josh came down with malaria. We're not sure how as he is on antimalaria medication, but nevertheless...blood tests show positive for malaria. Fever, chills, headache, vomiting and blood in his urine have all taken their toll.  I talked to him this morning.  While he wasn't feeling well at all...weak, tired and dizzy, at least he had stopped vomiting and the fever had been gone for 2 days, so we're hopeful things will get better soon. The team Josh is on in Uganda has an AMAZING nurse named Jennifer who has been taking great care of him, and I was told he is getting lots of care and attention from the moms on the team. What more could a mom half a world away ask for?  Please pray that Josh will feel better soon.  Pray that the medications work and that he will gain his strength back quickly. I hope to talk to him again tomorrow and am praying for continued progress. I will keep you posted.
