My last days of my month-Song trip to Guatemala found me self-reflective and grateful. I had rejoined the living after spending two days in bed, thanks to a terrible period of food poisoning that had me running from both ends.
I spent 36-plus hours locked up in my hotel room in a cold sweat and grasping my st
omach in pain. There may have been a bit of crying. There also may have been a few out-loud prayers to God begging him to make it stop and asking why I had been chosen to go through this. I should mention that I am not religious.
I didn’t have a mobile phone and my hotel room was not equipped with a fixed line, so I had no way to get in contact with my mommy or my loving boyfriend so that I could share my suffering.
Days later, I had recovered fully. While the bug （虫子） ran its course, I had to give some thanks to the staff at my hotel in Guatemala for being so sweet. They came to check on me on a couple of occasions once they realized I wouldn't/couldn't leave the room. They offered me tea and to call a doctor. I declined both offers but was moved by their kindness.
I may get sick often when on the road, but I had to say that the worst thing ever is to get sick while traveling alone. If I am sick, only when people I know and care about are around does it make me feel better. It’s not even about them playing Florence Nightingale -sometimes, just having them there and being able to feel their presence is enough to make you feel stronger.
