MAEMAE

This will be my last update on Maemae.  As of this writing, she is still in Baguio General Hospital completing her Meronem therapy.  Last time I heard, her typhoid fever caused her hepatomegally (liver enlargment) and they have also prescribed meds to correct that symptom.  They also removed her NGT the very next day when we brought her there and allowed her to go on a soft diet.  The day before, Maemae was telling her dad, "Paano naman kase ako makakabawas eh di n'yo ako pinapakain!?"   I'm glad the MD in BGH saw it ok for her to eat again. Her bowels work fine now. 

On the 26th, she will have her last shot of the antibiotic and they hope to finally get out of the hospital.  They will stay in Baguio until the new year for her follow-up checks.

Robert and Medy would like me to extend their gratitude to all of you who have been with them through those trying times by sharing your time in prayer and financial resources.  May the Lord richly bless you.

Praise God for His goodness and faithfulness.

CHECKING.... COFFEEEE.......CHECKING...COFFFEEEE...

This morning, Sarah, Norman, and I started reading Sara's translation of Jeremiah. (For non-translators:  This is called committee checking where the translation team tries to improve a draft by agreement and disagreement, rejecting or accepting, etc. the words, structure, etc, used to express the exegesis (meaning) of the texts.  Jeremiah is a difficult book, I just found out! We have a hard time translating the passages where God is very angry.  What tone would God use to speak when He is angry or jealous?  For a language like Kalanguya, which depends so much on speech intonation and discourse particles for meaning, these are questions that arise when we translate. Committee checking is a difficult process.  It calls for humility, presence of mind, attention to detail and sensitivity from all members.  If you are the drafter then you have to remove yourself from your work.  KEEP DI...
