Hello!
I had an incredible time in Mexico the past weekend. I am sorry to keep you all hanging. I got the flu and was out for a complete week. I have been drowning this week making up exams, and working. I am about 95% recovered and almost finished with unbearable school work. Anyway, I really wanted to talk about Mexico.
Friday February 11th I met 8 fabulous strangers would soon become friends. My dad presented me off with ladies who were nervous to be responsible for me in Mexico. Lisa Stanken MD legally became my "mom" for the trip according to the affidavit. Flew to Houston, and met the rest of our team. James and Randa from Lexington and Mark and Andrea from LA--the non-medical part of the team. We also met up with Lisa RN from Florida. As a team, we all flew together to Monterrey. I made it through customs fine, but the doctors and the nurse practitioners had some trouble with all of the medications. Through a bit of pleaing eventually everything made it through customs. We met up with Oscar who calls me "baby face." Tim and ran into Beth Gukenberger the founder of Back2Back coming back from a KLOVE Cruise. We boarded a bus and made the trip to the compound. I was amazed just looking around in Mexico, actually being there. Everyone shared remarkable stories of how John the sponsor of our trip had impacted our lives. Pulling into the compound of Back2Back I finally felt at home. I had an incredible sense of peace being right where God wanted me. I jumped right into action our medical staff were running the clinic at Back2Back. The children from Casa Hougar Douglas were all over me, and the language barrier become very apparent. For the sake of your interest and my homework I'll end it here from now. I can't even explain the perfect peace I experienced in Mexico.
And a quick note to my supporters. Nearing the end of this month my deadline for raising support is near. If you have any questions please email me saralovesyou93@gmail.com.
Much love to you all!
