Leaving Guatemala
Well, we still have the Rio Dulce curse, that
is the Hotel
California curse that you can never leave. We thought everything
was ready;
Caroline got Dengue fever.
With Dengue you can’t eat or drink, have headaches, joint pains
and are not of
normal mind, (though some of Caroline’s family might say
situation normal!).
There are also up to 3 different rashes, of which Caroline got
two.
For 5 days Caroline couldn’t walk anywhere. This was quite
inconvenient as we
were still on the hard. So nurse Murray had the rather
unpleasant job of
emptying the bucket each day (not too bad, as not eating!) The
last rash and
final fever leave you swimming in sweat (such a lovely
thought!!).
Then you just have few weeks (or months) of recovery. The second
case of Dengue
at Nana Juana that we know of this year. So, delayed for weeks
again.
