So... it was a crazy last week, that's to say the least...like I said last week, Elder Vicente was taken to the hospital with what might've been tuberculosis. A few days ago that was confirmed, so he does in fact have TB. He was sent to Antofagasta to begin recovering and everything, and president decided to keep him there in Antofa to recover or something. I was, meanwhile, left to suffer the consequences in Torreblanca. Basically... stress. Lots of stress.
Every day was a lot of planning and calling and moving around. I was with the elders from the other sectors, with the two who live with me and also the zone leaders. However, that made me super stressed just being with them, so I tried hard to get a member that I could be with in my own sector. Every day I was calling and planning and whatnot, and trying my best to be able to work in my own sector. Even so, I basically didn't get anything done in my sector. President decided not to send me a new comp right away because the cambios were so close, so I spent the week alone. In some ways I loved it, in some ways I hated it haha! I loved the actual part of being alone, but hated the part of having to take up the slack left by the lack of companion. But oh well, I got through it haha! But then Friday comes, and I get a call from the assistant. I've been transferred! I have been sent back to La Portada, to the ward that's right next to my old ward, Caliche. My new ward is called Centenario. I am with yet another Peruvian companion, Elder Gonzalez, who has around a year and a half on the mission. It feels really weird, I'm actually in the same cyber that I always wrote in before, so it almost feels like I never left, or I'm picking up where I left off. I am now officially in my last cambio. Mis ultimas seis semanas! How crazy is that, no? It's weird to think about, but it hasn't really hit me yet. It feels like any other cambio. I'm excited to be with Elder Gonzalez, he seems pretty chill. I'm gonna have to turn up the heat these last few weeks! Kick it into even higher gear! But I'm excited to do that.
The last few days in Torreblanca were uneventful, I was basically just with members all day. I almost couldn't even say goodbye to most people. But that's ok, this week I'm going to start it well! Thanks for everything!
Les amo a todos!
Elder Schmid
