A little medical evacuation

Anine, my colleague, is sick with dysenteri. She has been suffering for over a week now. Diarrhea, headaches, weakness, stomach cramps and pains and so forth. She has been treated with penicillin for four days now and it seems not to be working. The situation other than that is not very dramatical. All she needs is a good doctor and the right medicin. So...

The Norwegian Red Cross (NRX), International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) and Sudanese Red Crescent Society (SRCS) are right now about to decide wether to send us both to the capital where hospitals are better. I follow to take care of her. We will be under the guard of the IFRC in Khartoum.

So exciting days of new experiences on a regular basis here in Sudan for us. So stay tuned for later updates and news. :)

All the best

Thomas
