Hi everyone,

We spent the day yesterday in Trivandrum, the capitol, seeing a highly regarded 
swami and a senior Ayurvedic doctor.  Both had good advice, and the doctor has 
given us quite a few natural medicines to help restore Tara's strength and reduce 
her cough.  I'll keep you posted on that progress.  Though a day in a big Indian 
city is always tiring, she was clearly pleased to see these two people, and to 
receive their blessings, advice, and medicine.

We're starting to settle in here a little bit, and everyone continues to be very 
helpful and kind.  

Take care,

Mark
