Day 136 - Hospital Visit - Waiting

(Ursula) There was nothing special to write about for today. We were still in shock and grounded at the Police station.

The police had an emergency early morning and woke us up with their sirens.

People often stop by our camper and seem puzzled by the names Europa and Suiza on the camper’s roof. I was getting a little annoyed having to explain what it meant. One gentleman noticed the Swiss flag painted on our spare wheel and wouldn’t understand why we didn’t carry medication for his illness.n Heinz and I went back to the hospital in the afternoon l to check on the boy. Unfortunately, the language barrier made it impossible to communicate with him, and nobody was there to assist with the translation.

We left a chocolate bar by his bed and felt terrible for the poor boy. The nurses assured us he was well taken care of and needed time to rest and heal.

After we returned to our car, the lady from the day before brought us soup and more delicious cold juice, we purchased a dish of rice and meat from a street vendor. Then I sewed and washed and occasionally talked to people that stopped by to visit.

We visited the Butlers in the evening and discussed their mission and faith. Joe gave us a Bible, and Diane packed a little piece of Edam cheese in a bag to take home. I thought that was so thoughtful of them.

Before sleeping, I wondered how long we would have to wait here.
