I don't know you, but can I bring you lunch?

Last week we received a call from a woman we'd never met before, "Hi.  My name's Lidda and I heard about the health of your wife and I would like to bring you dinner some day."  Her daughter lives in Springfield, Virginia (just outside of Washington, DC) and five years ago the daughter's husband died of melanoma.  Their church rallied around them and took care of them so well, it really impressed Lidda, so she wanted to extend the same generosity to us!  She brought a great meal of roasted chicken, potatoes and vegetables.  Who would think that the generous acts by people in Virginia would spill over to bless us in Peru?

Nothing more Peruvian than a potato!

Amy had a really good day yesterday.  She went to our team meeting and was awake a large portion of the day.   Her balance was better and right now she's even tackling a sudoku, which she hasn't been able to do for a while.  It's been her best in 3 weeks.
