For us, life here really isn’t more dangerous than in the US; we live in a Western-style house with running water and electricity that works most of the time. The whole family’s gotten intestinal parasites on village trips but it’s no big deal; you just take some pills, drink Sprite, spend a day or two on the couch watching TV.  On the other hand, in this dry, hot climate, we rarely get colds or flu. I read your blogs—you get sick more often than we do, in damp climates, with lice infestations.

Sympathy Itch; a well-known medical condition. I'm with mamatoo (not on the laundry offer)--you are getting some great posts out of this. Surely you are also developing character or, uh, something.

They sound like beautiful people, and rare (I think) to have such a wonderful relationship with y'all. Is there a bright side? Well, I suppose you have had some amazing writing material lately, which is a gift to all of us! My offer on laundry still stands. So sorry to hear about the in-laws.

It's lousy to be lousy. Maybe if they let people know when there was an outbreak, we could avoid this. Maybe if they checked heads, and sent home protocol for treatment. Not that I'm an expert here or anything. Oh, wait. I am now. Thanks, Mallory. It’s lousy to be lousy. Maybe if they let people know when there was an outbreak, we could avoid this.

Kaiser told me that the school you go to has a rep for being lousy, in you know, the louse way. Guess this is why. Bummer about your in-laws being scared off.
