Picked up the Malarone (Malaria medicine). Wow, at $10 a day, it's no wonder that it's hard to get coverage for people in the third world.
When I tell people I'm going, about 50% of the people want to know about the vaccination, 25% worry about me getting shot at, and the rest ask "what will you do there". Everyone knows the need. Many people want to know if you can really make an impact. I describe the impact Call to Care has made in 18 months, and it really blows people away. A real testament to Martha, her perseverance, and the generous support to her message. As disposable income decreases as the global economy is in a real downturn, the message based on direct contact and direct involvement will be necessary to keep these efforts going.
I'm getting really excited. Not so nervous anymore, just hoping I can fit it all in a suitcase.
