Have you ever seen a dislocated finger? I happened to be looking at my own yesterday. While touring the new school (which is still a construction sight), I tripped and fell forward. In breaking my fall my finger got caught up in a piece of equipment. When I got up, dusted my pants and gathered myself I notice my right ring finger was bent the wrong direction (no photo, thankfully). So we got to experience a doctor's office much earlier than we wanted. I am now fine - the nurses and doctors were very nice, and it was a blessing having our friend Skender with us to translate when necessary. I had to get xrays before Dr. Debroshi "fixed" my finger and after. The whole ordeal took about 2.5 hours and cost 50 euros total - no forms. We're not in Kentucky anymore...

Gary,
I know about bumps in the road. I am sorry I did not get over to see you before you left. I got caught up in work stuff and getting things prepared for Christian to be ready for his first day of high school.
It is so great to hear all of you are doing so well. You are in our prayers and I am confident our Lord will watch over you and family.
Love from our family to yours

Hello Palmers! It is so great to read your updates, even if they are about unfortunate things such as a broken finger. This is God's way of saying "....Take it easy...don't try to do too much...I'm proud of you guys already!"
HE is with you all the way...and so are your friends and family!
Keep up the good work!

Julia -
I think a doctor/hospital visit the 1st week in a new country is a 'rite of passage'. You are a 'seasoned' expat now. So good to read your updates and know you're all doing well. Love reading about your adventures especially the every day routines.

Sorry to hear about the finger- Ouch! No health forms? Only 2.5 hrs? I cannot relate . . .you did say Kosova would be more simple!
We think of you guys often- be careful and thanks for the updates-

Gary,
We miss you at the Center, but Jim is doing a great job. Have you seen Bill's new website? Jon and I met with Bill today to make an Intervention data base like the one you designed. Thanks for the blog--we'll enjoy reading about your adventures.

Gary and familyl,
First, sorry to hear about your thumb-ouch. We all hope things are going well for you. I'm sure you and your family will gain as much from this experience as the students you teach. I'm sure you will miss the Centra meetings-bu hey, with the internet you can join some meetings-of course they will probably be at 2 or 3 in the morning your time.
