A Horrible Tragedy

Hello everyone-
I update my site today with a very heavy heart. We were to have sworn in yesterday and today be headed out to our sites. Unfortunately, my good friend Wyatt suffered an accident in the early hours of Friday morning that resulted in his untimely death. He was a great guy and an even better friend. Even though I'd only known him for 10 weeks, when you spend 10 hours every day with people a special bond can be formed. I'm not at liberty to provide any additional details to what happened. I would like to extend my most heartfelt condolences to his family and can only hope that they are finding some sort of consolation that his last 10 weeks were a great experience for him and he died while trying to sacrifice 2 years of his life to help others.

The swear in has been postponed until Tuesday and we are currently in Lusaka receiving counseling. I'll be at the Holiday Inn at the following number until Wednesday morning if any of you would like to call. 011 260 1 251666 rm. 139. Central time zone is 8 hours behind us so do the math and feel free to call me anytime between 9 pm and 8 am my time. If you miss me, try back later. I probably won't be in Kasama until Friday but you can call that number next weekend if you'd like.


Pearson, out.
