Feeling Better!

So I am finally feeling 100% better!  Yay!  I came down with a really bad
bug and it caused me to become extremely dehydrated, and I had to be hooked
up an IV. I don't know what I would have done without everyone here. They
were so amazing.  It was not fun getting sick in rural Uganda, but I was so
lucky because I was at a medical clinic, surrounded by doctors. A couple
other people on the team have gotten the bug too, but not quite as bad as I
had it.  They were just sick for 24 hours, I was passing out, and felt sick
for a little more than 2 days.  John was great, he put a bed by the mango
tree for me to rest in and everyone would come by to make sure I was okay.
And the Ugandan staff is amazing. Resty (the pharmacist) put the IV in and
the doctors from states said that they don't think they could have done it
better.  I am all better now and I am glad that I didn't have to miss the
visit to the Scholars at school :)
