Dear Nicole,
It must be very frightening and frustrating to be so far away from home, and going through this complication right off the bat. I'm frightened for you, but I'm also praying for your safety. I've asked (the Lord) to heal your infection, and send angels to watch over you.
I'm so especially concerned for you, as I'm planning to take the path you've taken - self-pay in Mexico with Dr. Ungson.
Was there anything Dr. Ungson has said to make you feel better about how things are progressing yet?
I'm looking forward to your feet being on solid US soil again soon. Please let us know how you are doing.
Pulling and praying for you,
Anne Stein (near Seattle)
