Last friday we had a super busy day. we had lots of appointments and tons of people to teach. Well we were coming down to the last couple appointments and we had the feeling we needed to go to the Leddas house. They are a member in the ward and Sister Ledda works for the neighborhood. So we went over to their house and sat down and started chatting. About 5 minutes in to talking we heard screaming at the front door and we saw a lady crying and screaming for help. All i picked up out of the screaming was "Susi fell off the cliff to the river." So elder ugalino got up and ran to where the lady told us this happened. Well we get there and there was a ton of people at the top but only one person at the bottom of the cliff trying to save susi. So elder ugalino and i immediately take off down the cliff. it is probably twice the size of the hill behind albertsons and just straight mud. So its a super long hill. well we finally get to the bottom and susi is at the bottom twisted and turned stuck in a huge thing of bamboo that luckily stopped her from going off a good 60 foot drop. When i finally get to Susi we realize she is drunk and now passed out. After a good 20 minutes of cutting and pulling bamboo susi was free and we could start the climb back up. Now at this point it has started to rain. The hill is super steep and just mud and not trying to be mean but susi is not a small women. So after 30 minutes of slipping and sliding, yanking and pulling and dragging, Susi is at the top of the hill. Now we met susi's 18 year old daughter who told us what happened and the whole situation. But due to my mother i will not specify the details at this time. However we carrying susi back to her house and lay her down in the kitchen and at this point she is still passed out drunk. Now i thought okay she is okay now and she is just going to sleep it off (I was wrong). So i went outside to wash off because at this point i was just covered in mud. And right before i started to wash my hands i heard screaming, so i ran back inside the house and susi was on the ground having seizures while her 18 year old daughter, 10 year old son and 6 year old daughter are screaming and crying. I dont know how i knew this or how i remembered it but for some reason i knew susi needed to stay on her side so if she threw up she wouldnt choke and die. SO ELDER SACKLEY (Because everyone else is either crying or cant take seeing that stuff which i cant take this kind of stuff either) is the one who has to hold susi on her side while she has seizures and throws up. There was countless times i had to check her pulse to make sure she still had one. Needless to say I have never been so afraid in my entire life and said so many prayers in such a short amount of time. However while i was dealing with all of this the member called 911 and an emergency team was able to come and help. So when i left the situation susi was on a strecther being put in an ambulance. Now 6 days later i now she is at home and recovering but i havent been able to visit her yet. I think later today :)
On a more happy note I got to do 2 baptismal interviews this past sunday which were both super spiritual events. Its so amazing being able to interview people who have prepared to be baptized.
Hope you are all doing well. Love you all lots

ps. If you are going to be a disobedient missionary and go to the computer shop on a non pday to watch movies, I would suggest dont go to a computer shop in your district leaders area ;)
