Hello Family!

I just want to report back to let you know that I am feeling better....I called the mission nurse and I have had another parasite test. I will probably get the medicine to take sent to me sometime this week. All the missionaries are infested with parasites (even the sisters) so they just give us medicine to take.

I have also found a little rest helps me to feel better...and take a bottle full of pure electrolytes and water with lemon (that’s the nica indian medicine) and it worked!

My new greenie companion from North Carolina is a handful. He is a awesome kid, works hard, tries to do everything that he is suppose to do, and tries hard to learn Spanish. When I told him I was sick and needed to rest a little he got so mad at me. While I was sick, he was so mad and told me to stop thinking about myself and get to work. Then he tells me "You know what I have enough faith that I could be healed”…..blah blah blah. We will see what he thinks the first time he has to make a mad dash for home to the toilet with diarrhea. Stomach issues are just a part of life down here! I told him about some of my past sicknesses here in Nicaragua and now he is a little (not much) more understanding. haha

I just uploaded a bunch of pictures for Leon (previous location) and Matagalpa where I am now. So please post the link on my blog.

Love
Elder Buck
