Med Evacuated

It has suddenly come up that I need to return to the US for medical reasons. Nothing life threatening, I’ll have a simple surgery and the PC is sending me to Washington DC this summer for a month to six weeks. It isn’t that uncommon that a volunteer needs to be “medically evacuated” from their country, and apparently I am the next lucky candidate! Assuming that everything goes as planned, I should be returning to Macedonia later on this summer (I’ve been telling people August). Unfortunately this means I will most likely miss the English summer camp that I’ve been working on for the last several months (however, they can still really use your financial support and I have some students who will attend).

Anyway, health is a higher priority, so I am fortunate that the PC is taking care of me. I will be staying at a hotel in Washington DC. Once I check in and have a room number, I can have mail sent to me. Let me know if you’d like the address and/or phone number.

Thanks for all of your prayers, moral support, kind words, good energy and thoughts. I am very honored to serve and represent our country with the Peace Corps and appreciate all of the encouragement and support I’ve gotten from everyone.
