Monday.
The talk of the town is Miss Amelia's cousin getting bashed. Thankfully other things happen to take our minds off it - mainly a busy clinic and the 'hysterical' Imelda from Barranco appearing out of the blue. This time she's been talking to her sisters and is now apoplectic about getting diabetes, high blood pressure and pregnant. It turns out she's engaged and having sex but has no idea about getting up the duff, except that her breasts hurt and thats what has worried her. So, we do a full work up, BP and BM and breast exam then send her down to the Family Planning Cemtre in town as we're not allowed to talk about contraception (bah!). Phew. Dr John does a quick teaching session beore trying for the 15th time to send a message to his wife (also a Dr and over in the Far East doing a placement) by email. Then Tah Dah - Miss Janices Chicken Noodle Soup with rice. I am happy happy happy and fall asleep smiling.
