Liz update 2

We are writing this update from cool (in fact COLD!) and wet Mbeya. We returned back home from Dar on Sunday (thankfully a very smooth, if long, journey) after taking lots of tests (that all came out negative) and having a few days rest. Liz finished the giardia medicine on Saturday and felt quite a bit better. However since returning to Mbeya she has again been feeling nauseas and tired. It's not clear whether this is the same problem, tiredness after the journey, or a combination of them both!

Please continue to remember Liz at this time. She is very tired and generally frustrated. It was good that all the tests were negative but at the same time it does make it difficult to know where to go from here. She is currently taking another dose of the giardia medicine to see if that can finally kick it. If not we will of course need to think of other options.

As always we value your support while we're so far from family and friends. Your words of encouragement do really help us to try and stay positive!

I know that it has got to be difficult to shake the illness. Have faith and persevere. We continue to think of you both and pray that the last few months will go smoothly.
