Josías is home! Praise God. It's been a full month that he's been in the hospital and at last the kind Armonía staff can relax a bit from their 24-hour rota of care (Mexican hospitals do not employ many staff at nights or the weekend and so relatives or friends of the sick person have to be on hand to buy or administer medicine).
We arrived back to find him cooking for his Dad and Nico. He looks thin and after such a boring time locked away was slightly overwhelmed by all the people. But several moments last night, a wide grin moved across his face in response to the mad Esp-ingles lesson taking place. At last, Alheli was full: Nico, Joaquín, Josías, Mr Josías, Todd, Liz and myself.
Please pray for his full recovery and for Pilar. No sooner has one Armonía person come out of hospital than another is in. Again, the doctors don't know what's up with her. First it was a headache, then suspected severe allergic reaction to dust in the house, then the medicine damaged her oesophagus but now they don't know again. I'm praying hard that I won't get ill here because the medical care seems a bit hit and miss. :s
