Wednesday 7th December
This will be the last blog entry for this trip. It has been
an amazing 12 weeks. I have spent much of today saying goodbyes as well as showing
a nurse from New Zealand around She arrived last night to stay for 3 months and
will be living in the house we have been using once I leave.
I particularly wanted to say goodbye to Julius who is in
charge at the farm. He had been very kind to us with our milk supplies and had
been particularly grateful when I went for milk 2 days after the shootings when
few people had wanted milk. I had looked after his sister on our Intensive Care
Unit about 10 days ago but she had died very swiftly from cancer at the early
age of 29.
They had just killed a pig and there was along queue to buy pork which is a local favourite!
I am returning back to Kampala tomorrow and hopefully will
have an opportunity to stop at the café and also a craft shop in Fort Portal on
the way back.
My grateful thanks to all of you who have been reading this
over the weeks, for your support love and prayers for us both.
It is always hard to say goodbye, especially when so many good things have happened during the trip. I hope you have a safe journey to Kampala.
