General happenings

So I ve been beaten by a dog and down with typhoid. Grrh the dog bite me and walked away that easily. If only I had something in my hand, the dog would have died there. I am fine and well today...although I am elaggic to the drugs i am on. I have been busy all these two months. Having a baby is a bundle of joy as well and hurdle. I am not complaining...I love my baby, its that extra responsibility has added to me.

Anywhere, we had a long staff meeting today and now I am happy that we are done....but had pizza for lunch which is not normal here so yea!! for that. Other than that my past work have been so great too. I have done some DNA extraction using the machines that are here in the lab...which makes me a little pro...more to learn though. The DNA extraction was for pigs and chickens within the country. The samples were send to Australia so we'll see the results when we get the samples back. This is to count for the diversity of the gene pool in the country.

Too much have been said so Ill leave it here but Ill catch up with you later....Blessings!

Down with Typhoid

A week ago, I felt really sick and I thought It was malaria. The symptoms were just like malaria's. I went to the hospital and the nurses thought it was also malaria and I was on malarai drugs for a whole week. Just then I thought the sickness was going to over, but never did so went back to the clinic and went through whole blood count and found out that all these days of sickness was typhoid. Now that I found out I felt better but than the medication or the drug that I am on is not good for my body. My body is so itchy and I just couldn't get it of my hand. Now they gave me the other drug to control the itchiness but its more of a sleeping drug and I am soon going to go to bed...that's so sad. I feel like my body is full of drugs. What can I do, I just have to go along with it...because typhoid is really bad. I got this sickness from the cramped up little room that I am stay and sharing toilet and bathroom with everyone...which is sad at the same time....oh well, I'll let you know of my progress later. baby is doing just fine except the mom...that's all for today...Peace!
