So just over 5 days till Agnes and I have our traditional Ugandan ceremony.
Most things are in place and my family arrive here tomorrow.
This blog post is mainly just a prayer request. Agnes has been really sick, starting from last Friday. She was falsely diagnosed with malaria but after her sickness got more severe I took her to the good hospital here and it seems she has a strong case of typhoid.
She can barely speak, and she can't walk straight without someone helping her. Typhoid can be very nasty and really knock someone around. The doctor says she will start feeling better in 5 days or so, but our introduction is in 6 days, and we have things to organize soon, as well as spend time with my family who are only in Uganda for 2 weeks.
It is such a shame because Aggie and I were going to pick my family up from the airport tomorrow, but she may have to be admitted into the hospital if she gets worse and the tablets don't work fast enough.
We were really excited about her seeing my family for the first time, but it will just have to wait.
The worry is typhoid can be tricky to treat (it took me 2 months to heal) we don't have 2 months .. but only 6 days before our Ugandan ceremony and 13 days till our wedding.
So prayers for Aggie would be appreciated, during this stressful time, because it is really the worst time to get seriously ill with all our preparations underway.
Thank you to all who send prayers her way.
Praying in ernest guys xo much love to Agnes and you Luke.
ReplyDeletePraying for you guys - so stressful, hang in there.
ReplyDeleteJames 5:13-18
13 Is anyone among you in trouble? Let them pray. Is anyone happy? Let them sing songs of praise. 14 Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord. 15 And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up. If they have sinned, they will be forgiven. 16 Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.
17 Elijah was a human being, even as we are. He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three and a half years. 18 Again he prayed, and the heavens gave rain, and the earth produced its crops.
Hi Luke, Uncle Pete here. best of luck and health to you and Agnes on your biggest day out kisses and hugs from your cousins Sophie and Rita.
