Here's a note Katie's sister sent out:
Hi to everyone,
For those of you who have been up on the Togolese news, I just wanted to write and let you all know Katie is fine. For those of you who did not know, the President of Togo died this weekend of a heart attack and his son has taken over the presidency (despite the rules of their constitution).
Katie is located far enough away from any major cities so that if there is an uprising she will not be near it anyhow, but so far there have not been any problems. The Peace Corps has put everyone on alert, just in case, but for now Katie reports being bored because she is not allowed to travel, and the members of her village are just going about their daily lives.
I hope all of you are doing well, and I will let you know if anything should change.
-Steph
