Monday was not a great day here. Lisa is still sick and seems to have gotten worse. She slept all day Sunday. She did not sleep well last night after midnight. She has had fever, chills, and body aches since Saturday night. She did get some medicine today will see her doctor tomorrow.

Mike came over last night and we had a few glasses of wine (Chilean) and discussed the usual items (history, theology and current events). After about an hour of discussion we went for our walk-a-bout and had a good time of prayer.

Today I went to the funeral of an old Cajun gentleman. My neighbour, Mr Moreau, had struggled with cancer for a number of years. He had a wonderful old Cajun accent and always had gentle and kind manner about him. That old Cajun accent, like Mr Moreau’s was so common here in Lake Charles when I was growing up, but today it is becoming very rare and will soon disappear. Lisa could not attend the funeral because she was so sick.

The funeral mass was held at Our Lady Queen of Heaven Catholic Church. It had been some time since I had attended a mass. It was a beautiful service and was conducted by Father Charles McMillin. I had the chance to speak with Rev. McMillin after. He seems to be a very affable man. It would be a pleasure to speak about our commonality and our differences in the faith with such an apparently good man.

Coram Deo,
Kenith
