Lobuche Again

My Mom is feeling terrible. Today, October 16, after my Dad, Braeden, and I woke up at 5:30 am, and climbed part of Kala Patthar, we planned to trek back to Dingboche. We had to cut our trek short and stop for the night at Lobuche, because my mom was too weak to continue. The sun burn and sun stroke had made her too weak to walk on her own for a long time. She had to get piggy backed by Prakash and our assistant guide Mingma, for most of the trek to Lobuche. Once we got there, the lower altitude helped my Mom feel a bit better. Tomorrow if my mom feels better, we are planning on trekking to Dingboche. If not she might have to be helicoptered down to Namche or Lukla. Let's hope she gets well soon!
