So, I got a fever last Wednesday, and instead of a boring trip to St. Petersburg, I got to have an exciting visit to a real Russian doctor!! My host family is extraordinarily kind and caring, so I have almost completely recovered. I learned that drinking enough fluids is hard, but Lesya made it easier by bringing me jam-water by the liter. Sasha ran out to get that ugly bulb syringe so I could rinse my sinuses. Valye took me to the doctor, and picked up my prescription. They all took care of me like I was their family member, and I am so grateful to them for all their help. Next time I get sick, I should come here to get their VIP treatment. Hmmm, not a bad idea, and maybe a stop at St. Pete on the way home...
