Rehab update!

In March 2009, I was on a motorcycle and hit by a truck on the Uganda/Congo border, left for dead on the side of the road. I was recently sent some video of the site of the crash, my first night in the hospital, the medflight from Kisoro to Kampala, along with a visit in Kampala from my dear friend Anthony.

I have to say, it's still hard for me to see this footage as it brings back the panic, fear, and confusion I felt, but it will give you a sense of the wreck that has had me sidelined for a while...

I'll never be able to thank you all enough for your kind words, emails, cards, flowers, and prayers that helped me get through all of this. A special thank you to all my friends who kept me company for the months I was in the hospital, and my eternal gratitude for my mother and brother for coming to Uganda to bring me home.

A few pics from the past few months...

If you are wondering where to help right now, a few past projects dear to my heart could use some help:

Anthony could use aid for the Batwa...
