As our time here in Guatemala winds down, many of us volunteers have started to gather our clothes for donation to the home…which usually pass through the hands of the volunteers, and then go to the oldest sections of kids. Cassie (who will unfortunately be leaving in about 2 weeks…) gathered up her things and left them in the front of the house for anyone who wanted them. Last weekend, Molly grabbed a pair of pants to try on…and then we heard it:
“AAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! F#*%!!! AHHHHHH!!!! IT’S IN MY BUTT!!! IT’S IN MY UNDERWEAR!!! IT’S EVERYWHERE!!!!!!”
I ran out of my room to find her clutching her butt screaming in pain. “WHAT HAPPENED???” Turns out a PRICKLY CATERPILLAR thought the back pocket of Cassie’s pants might be a good place to call home…and instead he died. The long pointy spikes on his back kept him stuck in the pants pocket so when Molly put them on, she was greeted with an unpleasant surprise!
We spent the next few minutes in Molly’s room helping her with…her situation – roughly 20 black spiky points sticking out of her butt! Yvonne used tweezers to pull them out while I held Molly’s hand for moral support. It was definitely a bonding experience to say the least!
