My friend diahorra!

I´ve already had travel tommy but this was a little more serious.
Sunday I was feeling real tired and uncomfortable. I went to church with V & family and then ate a little food as I did´nt have much of an appetite. It was my friends birthday that day so I arranged for V´s wife to bake a fantastic cake for the evening meal at the resturant. I did´nt feel like going but you know when you can´nt duck out of something. I put on a brave face and turned up armed with a big fancy cake. Everyone ate and although I did´nt want food I felt abliged. Well cutting a long story short, I got home went too bed and commenced my 15 minute trips to the can! I was suffering, severe pains in my stomach then I started vomiting, I was freezing cold (tropical climate). My host came in in the morning worried sick she called the doctor (yes it gets dramatic). Cronic indegestion was the verdict. Before I knew it I had V round praying at my bedside his wife in the kitchen giving advise to my host. V came by in the evening to see how I was and then the next day.
The worst thing ironically was that as medication is so scarse in cuba I had to use my friends short & precious supply.
Well I was in bed for 3days and did´nt eat for 2 days so I´ve lost a bit of weight. I´m fine now after a striked diet of FuFu and rehydration salt water! (FuFu is green banana shmooshed up & boiled! totally grose)
