It has a while since my last blog. We have had a fairly routine couple of weeks in China, though we have had some troubling news from home. My brother Chris was recently taken to the hospital with respiratory distress. He has had a disease called sarcoidosis for many years. It has left him with lung problems. Something caused it to become acute about 12 days ago and he was taken by ambulance to the hospital. He spent some time in intensive care on a ventilator. As of a few days ago he was doing much better and was able to breath on his own. He seems to be getting stronger each day and hopefully will recover enough soon to go home. Please say a prayer for him.In other news, my workgroup got together tonight and went bowling at the Dushu University Lanes in SIP. We had a competition with the winner taking home a model of the Caterpillar 14M Motor Grader - a sweet prize indeed. There were no real ringers among us, but Francis won that honor with a two game average score of 105.
Today was also my birthday - 41 years old. Kathleen and the kids came to the bowling alley and brought cake for the birthday boy and all of my colleagues. It was a fun night.
