Mumbai chapter
bombay-not a place to go if you have nervous children and a sick husband.Yes, sick. first he thought he had malaria, turns out it is denge fever. Joy. First doc missed the fever pattern and put him on meds that we are not sure helped. The hotel doc came the day after I arrived with the girls, and got himo on his way to a “speedy” recovery.Nothing is speedy in India, except of course the rickshaw drivers.
The energy (or the jetlag,who knows) has been very dense, especially at night. Nothing like dengeon the bed next to you to freakyou out about traveling with children in India.
h1n1 seems likenothing. so, every night panic came over me,deciding whether we wave the white flag of defeit or keep going. Just like a good 5 day fever, my panic broke. I practiced mantras & used every spiritual tool I know. Fear is a very intense thing, but somehow we got through it.
Now,we are in Goa. JUST WHAT WE NEEDED. Lovely beaches, lovely food, and the children feel happy. all is good (or god).
Next: family visits
