PALM BAY, FLORIDA

For the sake of context, in 2004 I had been serving at a Bible College in central Germany and I had just made my third missions outreach to India. Both experiences were incredibly beautiful and fruitful, and I was excited about what was to come. Next, 2005 brought an outreach to Munich and another glorious ministry stop in Salzburg. But upon my return to Nashville from these trips, jet-lag seemed to linger indefinitely and eventually great fatigue was followed by fever, then tremors, then weight loss and depression. Thirty-pounds and 9 months later, about the time Katrina began to form over the Atlantic, I boarded a plane to see yet another specialist, this one in Florida because my situation had become critical and I felt I only had a few weeks to live.
