Sorry for the graphic images and don't worry the cute little picture of the girls will be back as normal tomorrow. I just thought this picture was blog worthy.
Julio
Meet Julio my new little friend, well really I should say enemy. He is a worm, aka parasite, that resides in my left foot. I guess I have always known that living in Honduras has a few health risks and parasites are of course on of them. However, I was quite surprised when my teammate, and nurse who has practiced for a year in Honduras, and all around the country including Philippines could not identify this parasite. I then proceeded to the doctor to get some advice, and he asked if he could take a picture because he had "never seen anything like this before". So there you have it, I have somehow seemed to attract the most rare parasite out there.

Lindsey, we love you guys so much and pray for you often, but that is the most disgusting thing I have ever seen. Does it hurt? How does it get out of you? What if it moves from your foot? OOOHHH, so gross!
