I am back in the USA. I can’t say enough about the help I have received on both sides of the border. It looks like the worst is over, I should be well soon…….

On my second day in the hospital I began to realize this wasn’t a dreamscape molded by Larium. It’s hard to tell the difference sometimes. The story they tell me, is I was riding on one of Xelas rougher streets and had a tumble (no cars involved). I was unconscious when they found me and I went into seizures during the ambulance ride. Xrays at the hospital revealed a broken clavicle that I need to keep in a sling so it mends correctly. They took head xrays to look for bloodclots. They gave me three kinds of drugs to take.  All my friends came to visit me. First was my teacher Mayra, who was very concerned, then Doña Gloria and her entourage, there were others too, but I don’t remember the last few days well. After three days of observation, they released me today. Marvin (the school director) and I went and got my bicycle from impound. The bike looked unscathed, however the speedo and GPS are missing. I guess I  will buy new one’s with the money I saved (free) on the hospital stay <g>.
I’m thinking it might a good idea to fly home and give my shoulder a chance to heal, maybe get a second opinion. I can leave my bike with Doña Gloria, return in a few months and continue on my way..
