Urgent Care... But don't freak out.
Hi All!
Other than a couple of
big events that happened this week, it was actually kind of a boring one. ; )
But the big stuff was interesting, so here we go:
Sister Reynolds' leg has
been hurting her since before I even got here. She thought it was just sore
from bike life, but the other day, she noticed a GIANT bruise on the back of
her leg where it hurts. It started hurting even more a few days after that, so
we called up the mission nurse, who came over on Tuesday morning and thought it
was probably fine until Sister Reynolds said it had been hurting for over a
month. She took us straight to the Urgent Care. We were there for over three
hours, and the only thing the doctor could say for sure was that she needs an
MRI, so we'll be going in for that tomorrow. It seems to have been getting
better the past few days, so hopefully it's not serious. Right now, all we know
is that it could be anything from a pulled hamstring to cancer. I'm leaning
more toward the pulled hamstring, and Sister Reynolds is leaning more toward
cancer, but we are both hoping I'm right. It's kind of scary though! I really
hope she's okay.
Bike life is interesting
for sure. I swear my bike hates me. My skirt got caught in it this week and
about killed me (not really), and my seat likes to slip. That's okay though.
I've been learning a lot about the different things I need to do to fix it, and
it hasn't caused any major problems.
Our mission gets to
participate in a really cool thing. The Church is trying out something called
the Book of Mormon Experiment, and they're testing it in only a couple of
missions worldwide. We are super lucky that we get to participate in it. We set
up displays about the Book of Mormon and ask people to read through a page of
the Book of Mormon and highlight places that make them think about God. It
starts tomorrow. I'm still not sure about all of the details, but I'll tell you
more next week. What we do know is that we've been asked to show up in our
street clothes, with No Nametags. We're even supposed to go by our first names.
Super weird, but kind of cool. President says we're "in disguise." To
be honest, Sister Reynolds and I are super psyched to get to wear jeans a
couple of times this week. It should be a really cool thing! We're hoping this
will help us to find people to teach who are really, truly interested in
learning more.
I'm out of time. I love
you all so much! Be super happy. : )
Love,
Jessica
