More news from S.A.

We needed to contact family in S.A. to let them know we missed the flight. A kind office worker at the Addis airport let us use his internet to e-mail a message, since attempting a phone call did not go through. Temps in Johannesburg were considerably cooler than in Chad - a good respite from the incredible heat. But we will have to acclimatize! Well, the dreaded malaria finally is upon us, but just a mild form, we think. We have headaches and body aches and general fatigue. The doctor prescribed some meds for us, but Josie being allergic to sulfa meant we had to contact the doctor again and get a new prescription - we started taking treatment Mon evening. Slow going because we have the dizziness/fatigue all the time. Even if we feel good in the morning and try to accomplish a task, by lunchtime we are totally wiped out. We are sitting at this computer in an internet cafe near Kel's dad's farm, and our heads are "swimming" this afternoon. But we know this, too, shall pass! God bless you all, and we thank you for your prayers for us! (((HUGS)))
