I read about the chaos in Managua in the news today. The scuttlebut is that a family of 6 was killed by Molotov cocktails being thrown through a window. The bottom came out of my stomach. I'm praying your son and family are okay. It feels pretty helpless to be here and know this is happening but not really being able to do anything at all to help.
When you say you are under mortar fire, are people actually firing on your compound now?
Our town is. The mortars are coming close but not into the compound. At any time they could come flying over the wall...
