I am turning into a full blown Chemistry experiment.

Upon returning from Kazaboua, I was greeted with a nice little stomach bug. I played it cool for a day and a half thinking that it would work itself out. Also during that time I was taking a daily vitamin pill and occasionally some Tums (for calcium or stomach troubles depending on the day). After that day and a half I started self-medicating thinking that “I’ve had worse and it’s not too bad.” Give another two days for that idea, during which I was pounding Tums and Imodium AD and drinking my weight in water hoping to flush it all out. Yep, that didn’t work so tonight after being doubled over throughout supper I went to see John de la Croix who gave me two things. The first was a not so inspirational story about how his brother had just died two days ago after going to see him about an illness not three days before. He got to see back-to-back funerals. (The story came after I told him that I could wait until he was done eating as he was just starting when everyone else had finished. He said nope, illnesses come first and went on to tell the tale.) I get where he was coming from, but that didn’t help me much in the patient comfort zone. The second was a boatload of medicine including stuff for worms! My stomach bug may in-fact turn out to be a real bug! Cool!
