This morning I worked in the nursing home, it is a beautiful nursing home and the patients are so kind. I got my cheeks pinched a couple of times by these sweet ladies. I assisted one woman in feeding her her lunch. After every bite that feed her she would say “mucho gracias.” Just so appreciative for everything that I would do for her.

Instead of our usual chicken, rice, and potato dinner last night we got lucky and had a salad. Unfortunately, this change of menu resulted in all four of us getting sick. All of us started our wonderful Cipro antibiotics and hopefully will have a better day tomorrow. My instructor put me on bed rest for the afternoon, I feel like a pregnant woman. However, an afternoon off with some antibiotics will hopefully let me catch up on some rest and feel better.

I haven’t had the chance to post a picture of our MU family. So here this is: Mom is Eric, Dad is Edwardo, son is Christian, daughter is Kiara, and new baby (4 months old) is named after two Marquette students from last year-Jessica Stephanie. Note the Marquette Apparel on everyone!
