Week 43

No letter again, I will write what he told me about this week...

This was one of the hardest weeks of Daxton's mission yet.  First his companion got the flu on Tuesday-Thursday, so they couldn't do much.  So that was a bummer.

Next Daxton has still been having his eye problems, so he went a new doctor at the eye institute. This doctor told him he needed to start wearing glasses.  This was horrible news for Dax.  He does not want to wear glasses.  Not only does he need glasses, the mission insurance didn't cover them and he had to pay $120 out of his pocket :(. The eye doctor also told him he basically has 20/20 vision... so why does he need glasses you ask? I wondered the same thing.  I think he is being ripped off by the doctor :(.

When he got home from his doctor appointment on Thursday, he was sick too.  He did not get out of bed until Saturday, and then he only did for the Catacata families baptisms.  He had been so excited for them to be baptized.

The final blow of the week came when his companion only filled the font up to just above their knees for the baptism.  So Dax ended up having to baptize one of the girls three times. Which resulted in the girl crying, and not happy tears.

So it sounds like it was a frustrating week.  Hopefully this week he will have a much better week.

 This is where I went for my second doctor to get my eyes checked...

 The Catacata family baptisms...

 The other man in white helped to baptize the Catacata family.
Hermano Villafane, is the coolest member in Argentina.

This is how all the apartments look here in Argentina.
It looks something from a movie like The Maze Runner.
