Sickness and Preparation

6 Oct 2025 18:07

A couple days after returning from Florida, I unfortunately ended up with a cold. I had taken the Monday after returning off in order to get some rest from my travel day, then had the opportunity to meet up with a couple of my missionaries who were in town on Tuesday. However, by Tuesday night, the all-too-familiar feeling of coming down with a cold had crept up, and by Wednesday morning it was official. While I managed to still get in some video calls on Wednesday and Thursday, I mostly tried to rest and recuperate in order to be healthy as quickly as possible. By Friday morning, I had turned a corner, but am still dealing with some lingering sinus pain and congestion. Please pray that my health continues to improve this week, so when I head to Alaska on Saturday, I'm ready for the work ahead of me!
