Camino Somewhere September 2017
Hey everyone! nice to get inhere and just do a little post. I apologize for absence: walked across Scotland (south to north, on the W. Highland Way), got back to care for best friend on hospice, she died, then did her memorial. Did I mention that one day after that, my first grandson was born? And I got a HORRIBLE virus, which is my subject here.
Last year, I began walking Camino Frances on 1 October 2015. After a night in Zubiri with about six very ill French women, who insisted on a closed window, I got horribly ill.
I had a tight chest, a fever, a cough, and felt really horrible. As I stumbled into Pamplona, it occurred to me that my walk was probably over. Prone to pneumonia and with asthma, I was in trouble deep.
I immediately went to a pharmacia where they recommended what I consider to be a gift to the flu and pulmonary crud: Fluimicil.
Fluimicil is a round fizzy tab to put in water. It does not taste great, but it is a miracle worker. I felt better, took it slow for a few days, and had a bedside visit from a friend-- @Albertagirl . She brought me dark chocolate, another huge gift as I was too ill to leave my bed at that point. I was drinking a lot of water, and with my rotund frame (that was to change!), I was nourished adequately.
For two weeks, I've been very ill here in the USA. My husband came down with it too, and on day 13 of this virus, guess what I just found! Four tablets of that miracle helper, Fluimicil.
What I wouldn't give to have about a dozen of those! If anyone coming back from Spain can bring me some, I will send a check with a tip.
Thanks, and Buen Camino.
