It's Pam's Turn

Well, Ruth had her time being sick and now Pam gets a turn, with an unrelated ailment. Each visit to Mexico brings her some minor stomach issue, which has never been much of an interference to her trip, but this time it landed her in some kind of "hospital" on Saturday night, which happened to be Robert's first day in Mexico joining her. Some "bug" decided to invade her on Thursday. She was hit hard on Thursday, but Friday, the day Robert arrived, she was much improved, enough to join Ruth and him into El Zócolo for a late night bite to eat, but Pam wasn't eating. Saturday morning arrived and Ruth and Pam began to show Robert the city, having a great time until lunch when everyone could eat, but Pam. She "hung in there" until after el desfile, the parade in which they'd been waiting to see, but shortly after, Pam found herself sick again at home. Luckily Robert and Sylvia insisted she go to "el medico" and after a few hours of an IV with fluids and a few prescriptions filled we all returned home for sleep at 2:00 am!

Her biggest complaint (now) is her 3-day VERY restricted diet of jello, pan tostado, apple juice and a variety of very specific other "not so fun" foods-- no picante, no carne, no mole, no alcohol. ¡Que lastima!

(Please know-- Pam is doing great now-- well on her way to recovery. Ruth has left for Cosumel to join her daughters for the week and Pam and Robert have moved into a lovely hotel.)
