I am feeling so much better, still struggling but better. Not enough good bacteria and probably parasites. My colon isn't function very well. I am on a strict diet. We're not sure about the sore neck and back, but they're gone. I just have a little pain in my lower back. I have four more days of resting and when I start back up Thursday I have to start slowly. I got transferred to an area that's a little cooler. My first area is one of the hottest areas and it wasn't helping me. I am feeling much better. Did Hermana or President Hintze call you? I know they tried. I am on a ton of meds, but I am finishing most of them in the next couple of days. I am not allowed to go out for lessons until Thursday and even then I have to take it a little slow. But things are progressing. I am on a strict diet of no grease/fats/oils, pork, and milk. Well I am getting off soon. I love you so much mom. Thank you for all that you do for me. I don´t know what I would do without you. You´re the best. I have to eat like this for at least a month and then I can go back to normal. I am on stuff for the parasites. I have enough probiotics and the mission doctor told me to take it twice a day. I got transferred yesterday and I am right outside of San Salvador so I can get almost anything. I got the package. I love it! But on my strict diet I can't eat any  of it. :( But I have it all tucked away for when I can. I love all of the hair accessories and my batman cup. Seriously perfect! I have been a little homesick because I am not supposed to go out for lessons right now while on the mend. So I only have time to sit in bed and think... and I have been very homesick. Yesterday was hard because I was packing and I found the Easter card from you. And I had no idea what it was (when you gave me my Easter present I put the card elsewhere so that it would be safe and forgot about it). So I opened it, read it and bawled. I love you so much mom. You are amazing.  No need to feel worried. I am doing good and my companion is wonderful. I promise I will be okay.
 That is so wonderful, thank you for the prayers! They are much appreciated and needed. 
I have been praying very hard for her (Rachel) to get the job. I am so proud of my sister! She is so awesome. 
(This week we got a letter from Keli to Keli and were asking about it). Okay the letter to myself thing I meant to explain like three weeks ago. I am writing a letter to myself on my month marks so that I can recall what happened that month. Silly, but maybe cool. :) Sadly not much has happened this week. We do occasionally teach the class Gospel Principles. Our ward is average sized we have about 100 people on a good Sunday. In Ponderosa 3 (my previous area) it was about 15 minutes walking. Right now in this area I am not sure how far away the church building is. I haven't tried many new food because a lot of things here are really greasy and I can't on my new diet. Boo! Oh well. The language is coming. I spend a lot of time studying in bed. Not many opportunities to serve in big communities but little things like helping members with dishes or cleaning up.
Elder Gonzales birthday was Saturday so we did a birthday party for him at a members house. It was so much fun! Although I couldn´t eat very much. Oh well. It was a surprise, so I used two of the party poppers and popped them at him when he walked in and yelled "Sorpresa!"
Saying goodbye to Hermana Escobar was super hard. We lost the other two Latinas in the change meeting and gained two gringas, Then I had to leave... She started crying so I started crying and it was all just really really sad. However, I do love my new companion. She´s nice and super funny. Plus she´s black. That just makes me feel right at home. I love  it.
Anyways, I have to get going soon. Hopefully I will have a little more to share next week. I love you so much mom! I promise I am doing okay, the Lord is watching out for me! Thank you for all that you do for me. I don´t know what I would do without you. You´re the best.
