GI distresses among us.



GI bugs are fairly common south of the border, and our group is no exception. We’ve had two volunteers, so far, go to the hospital for IV fluids and a curing round of either antibiotics and or antifungals (which I’m told is something like an antiparasitic). Two out of 29, not bad odds, but it is only the second week we’ve been here, and I’ve had my fair share of “gastro-intestinal emergencies.” Anna, on the other hand is solid as a rock. Her health that is.

Due to the size of our blog we’ll try to put a link on the page to a bank of photographs you may peruse at your leisure. Hopefully in the near future we’ll be getting a phone as well. My phone is locked (courtesy of America), but rumor has it can be unlocked down here for about 6 dollars, which is roughly 50 Bolivianos. That’s about what we earn in three days.

Short entry this time, more to come, hope all is well. Talk with you all soon.
