I will miss Brazil for sure, the people, the language, the culture. But it's over. But I´ll be back...
This week was different. As we were working, a member called us that a relative of hers was going to die unless she got a blood transfusion from a rare blood type...which I have.
And so we ran to the nearest hospital to try to donate and we called everyone to get permission to donate. Missionaries are not allowed to donate blood, but we decided to give it a try.
We went to the hospital and they checked my blood to see if I could donate and they told me to come back the next day to donate, but as we walked home Sister Castro called us and we explained what was happening and she said that we couldn't donate. And we got really nervous and sad that maybe she´d die. So we just went home, trying to contact president. He called us at like 10:40pm and told us that he had called the area doctor to get permission to donate and we got approved.
The next day we donated and relaxed at home for a bit and thankfully nothing bad happened. The sister who needed the blood received it and is almost all better.
Other than that the week went good and we are trying to baptize one more time.
I'm excited to see you all soon
Elder Willard
