Well it's Monday and I'm not back in town, I still haven't gotten back to Cheelo!
I arrived here Friday to meet Tim and JJ (our APCD, ie. boss) at the bus station.
Mr. Simate the DEBS - head of the District Education Office in Monze, and also the father of the family Tim lives with, had an asthma attack earlier in the week while at his office. He tried to drive himself to the hospital. Along the way it became too difficult. He flagged someone down and they drove him to the hospital where he was pronounced dead on arrival. The burial was yesterday. (His son Joe, is a good friend of mine and a very close friend of Tim's.) I stayed for the service and burial yesterday.
I'm heading back to Cheelo today - then Wed it's down to Kalomo for Thanksgiving.
Happy Thanksgiving all!
