First of all, that thing on my arm. I went to the clinic and they wouldn't accept me
because I didn't have an Ontario health card so I went to emergency and sat
there for 3 hours to find out that it isn't cancer or anything like that, just
dead skin or a wart, so I asked him to cut it out. He said he could but he
didn't want to and he couldn't freeze it because his Nitrogen was back at the
clinic, so he told me to freeze it with one of the things that you buy at the
drugstore or to buy some acid stuff to put on it, so I used the rest of that
stuff we bought before I came out, and froze it, and ripped it off, so for now
it is gone!!!
Sorry I don't have much time to write this week. We got an unexpected call from
a lady in our ward to go do some landscaping project today, so that took a lot
of our time today! But it’s great to hear that you are doing well with you and
the family and your surgery and I will keep praying for you!
Last week on Monday we had FHE with J.
Tuesday we had lunch with the H's and then went to Aaron Park, and then
later we went out to the S’s for dinner, along with some other things. Wednesday
we went to the food bank and to the DNFC and had lunch with the T's and
then taught a lesson to S and J. Then we went to the N’s for
dinner and had a great lesson with them, the best since I have been here. Thursday
we got up, drove to Winnipeg, dropped off Elder Florence and picked up my new
companion, who just got here Wednesday, who is from California and is 18 and
was raised catholic and has been baptized for just over a year, and is great,
has such a great desire to be here! We drove back from Winnipeg and went
straight to J’s and taught her. Then Friday we got up, drove to Fort
Francis and had a Zone Conference and stayed the Night in International Falls,
MN. We went on splits with Elders there Saturday, and went to district
conference that night and the next morning. But we were 20 minutes late because
we got stopped at the Border, even though this would have been the 3rd time
that weekend we had come through, because Elder Elliott`s Visa he got on
September 18th, 2013, expired on September 18th, 2013,
because whoever made it up messed up and didn't put 2015 on it. But they got it
sorted out and let us back into Canada and we went to District conference, came
back home, finished our planning, went and got a door slammed in our face from
an atheist, got invited over to M and D’s for dinner, and taught them a
lesson afterwards. They are just such great people! And today we have been busy
doing service and other things to prepare for the week!
But I love you and hope and pray that you will
continue to get better! And be careful!
Love Elder Shane Dola
