It was all downhill after I arrived back from safari on Sunday. I'm not known in my family for having the strongest immune system. In fact, I think I've picked something up in every major geo I've ever lived in/visited...NA, LATAM, APJ and EMEA...and now Africa.
I came down with a pretty bad stomach virus over the past few days and finally headed into the Morningside Mediclinic after some convincing from my colleagues Adel and Hemang who were going anyway. (Friendly reminder, 3 days earlier I was walking barefoot through the shanty towns and wiping little kids' noses. If that's not a breeding ground of germs, not sure what is.) Long story short, I'm fine. I was very dehydrated, but after an awesome IV bag, some tests, and a few hours at the clinic I was on my way again.
I've been recovering at the Villas since Monday and I can't wait to get back to the office. Unfortunately, I missed 2 field days with 2 of our coaches where Vivek and Soichiro were able to go out and meet with 7 of Awethu's entrepreneurs. They have both been raving about the experience. #DoubleBummer
On the bright side, I can recommend the Morningside Mediclinic to any of my friends or family who may be traveling through these parts. The staff is fabulous and my visit was a speedy one. That doesn't mean I want to go back any time soon.
A HUGE thank you goes out to my entire team and especially my body guard/hospital escort Hemang who have checked in on me morning, noon and night.
Something new every day...
