Pink Eye

A pink eye epidemic has been moving through Fiji.  Kids, adults, and no one of our Temple Missionaries even has it, not me or Cindy, thankfully.  For awhile all anti-biotic drops were sold out, I did buy some and gave one bottle to a Patron House cleaning staff member, and kept one just in case.  The Pink eye causes lots of redness and more swelling than I usually see in the kids back home.

Pink eye isn't much too worry about though, the islands where sanitation systems were damaged and destroyed by Cyclone Winston have been getting cases of Typhoid fever.

The Temple this week wasn't very busy, we had another Cyclone scare with Zena moving through, that caused some drop early in the week and the re-broadcast of Conference sessions this week had the Temple closed on Saturday.  I'll have some good pictures of what having a Saturday off meant for us...
