Church + Rain what can you say we do not think about it has a big deal. On Sunday the 25th my boy's and myself were in church. Church had just started and we started singing like normal and it is the rainy season so it started to rain, so we just continued to sing no big deal right its normal. It was not a normal day at church it was plan to do more singing than normal, so at this point we are into the service for about 1 hour now and the rain is continuing on and on and getting louder and louder. We are in a building with no glass on the windows and just a tin roof so you can imagine how loud it was. I was in the 2nd row about 5 feet from the pastor and I could not even hear him that's how loud it was. We just finished the last song and we were about a half hour left of the service when the pastor stopped the service and told us to go home. That was the 1st time in my life that church was cut short do to rain.
When we tried to leave very door was flooded, the whole inside of the building was wet and everyone was very wet themselves. When we were leaving we ran to the car so we were driving and we have to go up a dirt hill. I was half way up and was starting to lose grip I thought to myself sh@# I am in a mudslide. So I turned the wheel and got some grip back and just hit the gas and I made it though. It was a very exciting day!!!!!!!!

Returned Home to Uganda
I have been home for almost 1 Month now! The weather is great it's in the mid 80's to 90's most days it is the rainy season. Since I have been home I am trying to get caught up with the work.
One of the 1st days that I was back I was working in our Clinic and we delivered the second baby boy since we opened how exciting I thought. We had the 1st baby a couple of days before I got back. Otherwise it has been very boring same old same old.

Toads
On the night of August 23rd I was walking back to my home and told max to get him and so kept on walking back homeand when I got home Max was foaming from the mouth and he was losing saliva by the gallon. So I want to my friend Mariska's house and I asked her do we have Poisonious toad she did not know. We then called Peit and he said yes then I gave the phone to Mariska to get the directions so I can help max.
So there we were in Piets bathroom she looking for charcoal pills and I am trying to make Max to vomit. If you were watching you would be laughing Mariska found the pills then I put pills in peanut butter then max would take them. So for the rest of the night I was watching him to make sure he was ok.

Riot's
The last week from Thursday until Saturday they're was a riot in Kampala the capital city. It was all trible related fighting but it was not safe for anyone to leave the compound. Here in Mukono we were all right in the middle of it all. So on Thurday I went to Mukono and they're were trees down and people running around.
They're were some killed in this whole thing. One day only 10 people were killed in Kampala and in Mukono 2 people were killed, so it was pretty serious.

Anyways sorry about that but we were talking and out of no where this huge bang and the ground shook for about 5 to 8 seconds it was crazy. I have worked 2city blocks from a fault line and nothing I come half around the world and have an earthquake.
Malaria
Hello again-
This is a blog on Malaria so you are thinking to yourself why his he telling telling me about Malaria. Well I will tell you I have it right now, and it is the worse pain then you can possibly go thou. It is the #1 killer in Uganda yes ahead of AIDS and it takes 7 to 14 days after you have been biten by moqutio before you will start feeling it. It takes 3 to 5 days to cure and it most get worse before it gets better. For real very thing in your body is in pain from your toes to the top of your head. After it is out of your system takes 1.5 to 2 week to fully recover. So it sucks.
