I felt something coming already yesterday.
Some head ache, possibly fever but nothing more. So, I tried to find a pharmacy,
to get some pain killers. In order to do so, I went to the WCC infirmary. I
explained to the doctor that I just needed some advice. What kind of brand
would be similar to the empty packet of paracetamol and ibuprofen I showed him?
And where would I find a pharmacy? Well, he asked me to sit down outside and
after a few minutes a nurse came out with two small plastic bags with tablets.
She informed me to take one tablet from each bag together with breakfast and
dinner. I was very grateful. So service minded!
So I never went to the pharmacy. I went
home to the hotel and took as prescribed two tablets with some food. But the
night I experienced was something special. Of course I know that fever can make
you a bit dizzy but this was something else. I felt as if I and my body were
two different entities! The feeling was not nice at all. I am not going to
continue with this medication.
This means that today has been a different
day at the WCC Assembly, because I have spent the whole day in my hotel room. I
just went out a short while to get some food. And good colleagues from Sweden
have given me from their own supplies of ordinary, Swedish paracetamol. I look
forward to a good night’s rest and tomorrow my plan (and my prayer) is that I
can take part in the last day of the Assembly.

This is nothing we like to hear about though. Big hugs to you and good recovery!
Heidi, my friend. I feel better today and will definitely be recovered when we meet. With Gods help! :-)
