So, eveyrthing worked out well.

Last night when Chris had this coughing fit, the Lopez family, first the papa, who helped Chris to a chair on the front patio. Then the mama, daughter, and sister came over bringing herb tea, made of cinnamon bark and a mixture of honey and spices, including garlic. This tea worked wonders, and coughing stopped, along with a special menthol rub the mama put on his chest. She went home again, and made another quart of the tea and brought it over. They stayed a while, and she offered, through her husband, to massage my legs to take the swelling down. I declined, and I'll ask Dr. Donahoe first. Anyway, we slept well, and went to Sacrament Meeting this morning. I was tired, and my back hurt, so we went home after that, and had a snack and then I went back to bed. I slept until the Bishop called, and he came for his home teaching visit. He told a really interesting story of his conversion and baptism. Then we went to Karen's for dinner, and are home again. Eddy Lopez just came over to see how Chris is. l
