Yeah for Cipro

I've spent the entire weekend in bed as I seem to have picked up a bug of some sort. I won't gross you out with the details but I've been spending a lot of time in the bathroom. I'm exhausted and pretty much slept and read for two days straight. I'm not crazy about taking antibiotics unless I must so I called Dr. Ed (a doctor that I know from before) and he recommended that I take Cipro (an antibiotic). Thankfully I had some from when I was in Sierra Leone, and I didn't need them there. Ah... life in Haiti, last weekend I was swimming in the ocean and hiking in the mountains, this weekend I'm lying in bed willing the time to pass quickly. I did manage to make it to church this morning, seeing as it's about a 2 minute walk from my house) and it was nice to see a lot of familiar faces. They were very welcoming and happy that I had come back to work in Haiti once again.
