Just wanted to give you a short update. Ami may do this herself, in which case this post will be deleted [OK, Meem!? :)]
Ami has come to a crossroads in her life in Burkina and has decided to take a couple weeks in Ouaga and spend some time relaxing and seeking God as to what he has next for her in Burkina Faso.
She is doing much better in the area of health. When Lori and I arrived in Ouaga, we were able to see her doctor and ask some questions and get a better understanding of what's really wrong with her. This is a wonderful man who really cares for the people he sees and has a heart for the people of Burkina...and Ami as well! He is quite certain that Ami has a para-typhoid virus, similar to Mono, and that time and rest (and I throw in the hand of God) will bring her back to health. He did put her on antibiotics, just in case. If she doesn't feel better in a few weeks the only course of action is to medi-vac her home. But he's sure this won't be necessary. As our stay went along we could definitely see improvement in her appearance and strength. She still tires easily, but over all she's doing much better.
Speaking on behalf of Lori as well, we would like to thank all of you who have held Ami before the Father and asked for his hand to act on her behalf. It was amazing to see the hand of God at work in her, not only in the area of healing her health but to watch her minister to those he has put in her life. She truly in a vessel used for His purposes.
I will let Ami fill you all in on our stay there. I know you would rather hear from her than from me...this is her blog after all! :) Blessings to each of you. Happy New Year!!
Marc and Lori

Just thinking of you today and praying! May He grant you rest, strength, clarity of vision, and an illumined path (at least a footstep would do!)
Bless you,
Tara
