Jason's sickness

I was going to try and write last night, but there is just to much to do. It seems like when it rains it pours. Jason has been sick off and on since last Thursday. He seemed to be getting worse and yesterday I finally suggested that if he felt that badly, he needed to go to the doctor.

He went to the Emergency room yesterday and they kept him for a while. They finally concluded that he either has Malaria or Classic Dengue. Both are very similar in the symptoms, but Classic Dengue is not a illness that stays with you. While Malaria is a illness that can reappear at any time. Both illness come and go for a week or more, but Malaria is usually every 24 hours you get sick and the next 24 hours you are well.

Jason is still sick this morning so that is a good sign. He will have to go in Friday morning for some more tests. Please keep him in your prayers. This is especially hard on him as we have visitors that are here and he wants to be able to show them around Honduras.
