I’m not going to lie…this week was the pitts.
Last Sunday my companion and I decided to fast to have more success in our
area. And we were so ready to work. But Satan totally was a dummy and got in
the way. My companion got sick on Sunday night so we had to enter in a
little early because she had a really bad fever. Last week we wrote earlier so
my companion would be able to go and rest and then we didn’t leave the house at
all. Then on Tuesday when she was feeling better I randomly got sick
to my stomach and we weren’t able to leave the house in the morning, because I
needed the bathroom every two seconds. Then our new Hermana Leaders called us
and told us that we now have to enter the house at 6pm if we don’t
have a priesthood holder over the age of 18 to do appointments with us. All the
sisters in Hue Hue now have that rule until president says we can stay out
longer. And truth be told our ward doesn’t help out too much, so that’s kind of
hard to find someone to visit with us. But Wednesday night my bad
ankle started hurting me at night time and I thought the pain would go away
quickly, but it hasn’t. It’s still there. We left and visited as much as we
could and as much as my ankle would allow me. But I don’t know why it’s hurting
me. I have been using a band and everything. But it’s not getting better. It’s
not swollen anymore but it just hurts. So we will see what happens. It’s
just frustrating because I just want to work as hard as I can these last few
weeks I have left. But doesn’t matter what happens I’m finishing my mission
when my time is up. If the pain doesn’t stop I will go and get crutches and leave
and visit using them. So please just pray that my ankle will get better!
The good thing about
this week is my companion and I bonded more. We are also teaching a small
family. They aren’t married. The thing is the husband drinks and his wife wants
us to help him. And he was doing so good and told us he was going to go to
church on Sunday. He went the whole week without drinking and drank
Saturday night which was a bummer. But hopefully we will be able to help
them out.
Oh this morning was
kind of fun. We went and did service for a sister that has Huntington’s disease
and Parkinson’s. She is so adorable. I love that woman so much. We are helping
her clean out one for her rooms that has a bunch of stuff in it. But it was
good to be able to help her out. Huntington’s is the saddest thing ever. It
breaks my heart to see her get so frustrated sometimes with her health. Sometimes
she isn’t able to take steps. But she keeps on fighting.
But that’s about it
folks. Sorry my letter was kind of complainy but it just wasn’t the best week
in the world. But hopefully this week will be better. Love you all!
