Fam,

So I'm still I'm manila but I believe I will be leaving in the next couple of days.  I went over to a doctor that had me get a CT scan to make sure nothing serious was going on in my head.   And in the mean time she gave me some muscle relaxants and the lowest dosage of pain killer that she had.   I have taken that for 5 days and the headache seems to be smaller so that's good, but I have really tight shoulder muscles so she switched my medication for the relaxant and I will take that for 5 days and if that doesn't work I'll have to do some kind of physical therapy.   I should be out of here tomorrow or the next day.  Being in Manila has defiantly been an experience.  The hospital is in someways nicer then America and others its not.  The main building is defiantly nicer, but the other two towers are not as nice, but still way better then anything in my mission.  I have been feed like a king for the past few days as well, which has been nice to get some great food.  There is a lady that cooks for us in the MRC and funny enough her name is divine and she can cook up some mean meals.  I'm pretty sure I have gained some weight while i have been here. I also got to go to the biggest chapel in the Philippines on Sunday.  It is HUGE!  To give you an idea, it's like a mini hotel, multi story, and the chapel is like American sized.  It's giant.  I was also able to go to a fabric store and by some tela for pants.  I got 4 pairs of very nice fabric that would have cost me the price of one in my area so I was very happy to that.  We had a mini family home evening last night and we watched the Fiddler on the Roof.  It's such a funny movie!  I wasn't sure if it was okay to watch, but the couple missionaries approved it and said it was okay so we watched it and then ate a huge slice of chocolate cake:).  Yes that was my favorite part.  We do have transfers this week but I'm not sure who will get transferred.  It could be either of us.  Well I don't have much time to email being that the MRC doesn't have a p-day so I'll talk to you all next week.   I love you!!  Have a great week
Love,
Elder Mulliner
