Half Blind In Bangkok

I’ve been mean­ing to men­tion this for a while, but my broth­er is half-blind in Bangkok right now. He’s on a mis­sion trip and got some sort of infec­tion behind his eye­ball (yuck).

It sounds like he’s going to be A‑OK, but I’m sure it’s quite dis­turb­ing to fall ill in anoth­er coun­try. Espe­cial­ly a non-West­ern one.

On the plus side, he had trav­el insur­ance and so every­thing is paid for. It’s far bet­ter for him finan­cial­ly than it would have been in Amer­i­ca. And what­ev­er he has isn’t some­thing he got in Thailand–it was devel­op­ing before he left.

Any­way, he should be com­ing back this week­end. Until then, I’ll keep think­ing about Mur­ray Head­’s One Night In Bangkok.

  1. Glen–I’m work­ing for SMSU (MSU now) Chi Alpha run­ning the tran­si­tion of the Ecu­meni­cal Cen­ter to “The Hub” and kick­ing off a “Mud­house” cof­feeshop in the build­ing. Then I’m stay­ing on to over­see fundrais­ing and the cap­i­tal cam­paign for the build­ing. I’d like to help with their intern­ship pro­gram as well. I’m excited…anyway…what do you think? STEVE

  2. Hi Glen and Paula,

    I am in the mid­dle of writ­ing a paper due at 4pm (it’ is now 1.38pm) and I came across your site. http://www.glenandpaula.com sounds like a won­der­ful domain name for a site.

    Glad I saw you yes­ter­day. Dana is grow­ing up to be a very adorable, beau­ti­ful girl. Hope I get to see you again before I leave the U.S..

    Regards,
    Karen
