A note from Russia

My dear friends!

I hope that all is well for you. Just got a minute and want to write to all of you at the same time.
I came to Russia on Tuesday it was a very long flight 20 hrs.

Rested for the rest of the day and on Wed. started my doctor visits. I had so many tests done in one day that by the time I got home I had to take a rest.

The next day I got very sick. I have a very deep caugh and a low fever. I feel bad, expecialy when I'm staying with people and I do not want to be a burden. I hope and pray that I will get better soon. I'm asking all of you to pray for me and my health.

Moscow is so big! It took me a couple of days to figure out the subway it's huge and confusing. The good thing is I read and speak Russian, so I can ask people, but sometimes it's better to pretend that you know where you're going, just to avoid to be stoped by the polismen. Here they are constantly looking for visitors and checking their documents.

On the third day I went to the police station to get a stamp in my pasport that I'm here for more then three days. It's an expirience that I won't forget. They are so unorganized and unfriendly, it's scary.

I hope that in a few days I can write to all of you, but for now I have to go. One more time please pray for me and my health.

God be with all of you!
Oksana (from Moscow)
