Return to Peru.

When I first created this blog five years ago, it was intended to chronicle the experiences of my first return trip to Peru, and the title reflected that theme.  But since the sudden return home from my fifth stay and diagnosis a little over three weeks ago of Guillian-Barré Syndrome, a rare and temporary autoimmune disorder, that simple title has taken on a different meaning.

Now it is a command, a mantra, a source of motivation when I most want to escape from the hospital or struggle to raise my foot or can't even look at another calorie-dense Ensure.  Have patience.  Get strong.  Return to Peru.
