Hopefully it is only flu, but I have a feeling it might be malaria or dengue. Are they around in Angeles?

This is a really horrible feeling. I know she probably wont die, but she sounds so weak. I don't think I will sleep much tonight.

One to remeber is things that sound horrific to us are not so bad to people native to phill. I remeber my Wife having her first proper uk cold/flu here in the UK really knocked her for six everyone else in the my brit family and friends who suffered the same bug (we presume) carried on as normal.

Last year a BBC programe showed a uk reporter traveling around the equator and he caught malria and all the locals were joking that they are used to it and just like a bad cold to them.

So im soon your girlfriend will be back to normal
