hey fam,
thank you everyone for your prayers. this week was a week of recovery.
Monday night I think was the worst night of my mission. I was in my apt. and I
could not sleep. when I would lay down this unbelievable pain would rush into
my back and shoulders. so I would sit up and wait for it to settle down. and
then I would lay back down. it was so bad that I was just sitting up until
about 3:30. and I felt like I was going to throw up. so finally I woke up all
the elders in my apt and asked for a blessing. they gave me one and I tried to
lay down but still the pain was there. I tried a couple more times and then
like the fourth time I just passed out. I had to be up though at 6:30 so I only
had a couple hours of sleep. to be honest they didn't really find out what was
wrong, but im better now. ive lost a ton of weight though. I think this is the
skinniest ive been in a long time. my belt has gone down a couple holes. but im
better so momma don't worry. ill be fine!
so that also really increased my
testimony of priesthood blessings. it worked better than anything that I could
do. heavenly father wants to help us, all we need to do is ask. and also I have
some other exciting news! this week ill be having a "son". ive been asked to
train, so this week ill go to Kumasi and pick up my new comp! Im really
excited, for the opportunity to train and for a change. there are four white
guys and one from Kenya. so I don't know who itll be but ill let you know next
Monday. I think this will be a good thing for me. itll will definitely motivate
me. and it will be fun to help another missionary into the mission. I will still be here in Tamale in this branch.
well
family. that's about all I have this week. I love you all tons. keep being
amazing and keep working on those attributes. girls have a good first week with
school!
love,
elder Madsen
