Happy Mother's Day to all!!
Well the family and I had the chance to talk with Corban today. He only had an hour to talk and he splint the time between those of us here in Brown County and his Dad in Evansville. Casey started off the conversation with Corban and of course it was almost all in Spanish. To quote Casey in English of course Corban's Spanish was incredible. He spoke with each of his siblings, brother in-law, Ben and my self. Even Miss Lilly, Corban's niece, spoke with Corban telling him that she loved him.
I can report that he is well. He says that he has lost another 25 lbs. Of course as a mom I had to ask if he was going hungry and he said that no he was not. He said that the culture there has 2 main meals a day that the evening meal is usually just a snack if anything at all. We asked if he had received any of the letters or packages that we have sent in the past month and he said no he had not, which was very discouraging, but lets me know not to send anything too important in the mail. So I plan on doing a bit more research into a reliable means of getting things to him and will let you all know what I find out.
I asked if he needed anything and he said that he did not. He sounded good, but I could swear that I heard a slight Spanish accent in his voice..... lol !! So we will wait until Christmas to hear from him again. So everyone please continue to write Corban when you can! So take care everyone!
