It's been a long day.  A long week.  And it all ends tomorrow.  But we have greatly enjoyed this group of men from various African countries.  We've joked with them.  Had serious conversations.  Served them.  And soon we will miss them.  

Before there is time to rest up from this week, I will be packing my bags and heading up to Mbingo with Nadine.  Praying, praying, praying that the doctor will be able to schedule surgery immediately.  Hate to think of having to come all that way back down here only to turn around in a few days or a week or two and do it all over again.
