Village Medical Provides Needed Medication

The pharmacy group (Joe and Dennis from Terrace Park and Susie from Nashville) has provided numerous medications to villagers for various ailments. Here are some of the more common problems we're finding:
  • Diabetes (especially in women; there seems to be a genetic disposition; diets are also very high in carbs)
  • Hypertension
  • Upper respiratory
  • Ear infections (one young girl hasn't been able to hear for a year simply due to the amount of wax build-up)

Hi to All the Team,

Melissa,

The kids had a fun day. I may have to cancel school again tomorrow. We are having an ice storm and DUKE is worried about power outages. We are ready for anything - it will be an adventure.

We miss you - we love you - we are proud of you.

Paul, Lindsey, and Tyler
