Two Weeks Later

I have already become accustomed again to all those things we take for granted here, like being able to drink safely from a tap.

Three days after I left Port au Prince, I came down with Dengue Fever, a mosquito-borne tropical disease. I have been sick for the last 10 days, just yesterday for the first time feeling as though I might be improving. The symptoms included fever, aching joints, headache, nausea and other digestive distress, and extreme lethargy.
