Travel Sick in Turkey

We have barricaded ourselves into Sanliurfa in the southeast of Turkey, for Chaya has come down with some form of travel sickness. We went to a walk in clinic and the doctors told here that she was fine and healthy.

She was not fine and healthy. Her throat was so swollen that she could not even speak and she could barely move.

in Sanliurfa, Turkey- April 9, 2009

I once had a pediatrician when I was growing up who would just say, “It’s just a viiiiiiruuus” every time he could not figure out what was wrong with me.

I think Chaya picked up some sort of 5 day virus in Iraq.

But this morning she is spray and ready to go.

Moving on to Gaziantep.

Tomorrow Syria.
