Is this another American with the disease? I thought the other person with the disease was a man. This sounds like it may be a third.

There are two men and one woman....all Americans, with the disease.

One of the men...(not sure of his status there) was actually allowed to board a commercial airline.....got sick in flight.and started throwing up..(I don’t think he had anything to do with mission work)....they landed him in Lagos, Nigeria and he died......He leaves a family in Minnesota.

Kent, the doctor, is from Texas.....
And there’s another missionary, a woman.....who has been in the mission field 20 years.....I don’t know where she’s from.
