A Hard Week






This week was probably our hardest here in Haiti.  Lyndlee has been very sick.  We were hoping the doctor would be here this week so that he could look at her.  Luckily there was a nurse here this week with the group that came in & she was great help, along with advice from our mothers, sisters, & several women here!  Lyndlee was running a high fever, had a rash all over her body, wouldn't eat & sleep.  We were told to keep her cool but that was a challenge since we didn't have power.  So most of the days we put her in the tub with cold water to keep the fever down & to relieve her from the rash.  We still don't know exactly what she has, we have her on medicine right now thinking possibly she may have strep throat or an allergic reaction to something.  So this week has been hard watching our baby girl be so sick, not being able to help her much.  Than there is this awful virus going around our students & teachers that Brennan got the beginning of the week & I got it towards the end.  We appreciate all your prayers during this time, please keep praying for Lyndlee & that she will continue to feel better.  Our good friends/neighbors had quite a scare with Amanda being very sick.  But she also is on medicine right now so please pray for their family & that she can continue to feel better.
Yesterday morning we wanted to get out of the house & enjoy the holiday/day off here in Haiti so we took a hike.  It was beautiful sights we saw, from the ocean view, the mountains, the Haitian people coming out to greet us & smile at Lyndlee.  It was a great day & we thank God for it!  
Enjoy the pictures!  We love you all!  Please keep praying the boat can make here to us with the new generator, they are telling us it will arrive Oct 22nd so we wait & pray!  We have had power for 4 days now & are loving it!  We feel spoiled even!
Janna, Brennan & Lyndlee Jya-Ying
