Who Wants to be Sick?

How disappointing to come half way around the world and get sick. Nina, Vladmir and Lena took very good care of me yesterday. Lena is a former student of Nina's and Vladmir's and had come to not only visit but help interpret while Marcia visited her mother and sister on International Women's Day. Lena is 23 and an Associate Dean at the University. It is her job to monitor what the faculty are doing in their courses. She is delightful and caring and helped to interpret what the doctor prescribed to help me (I just have a virus but Nina cooks special food and makes sure I take my medication.) The activities of the day were canceled as I spent the day sleeping.
