"Maybe the mosquito thought you were a child, that's why it bit you and you got dengue fever"
That's what the teachers said the first day I was back at school after being sick. It wasn't just the people at the market and the doctor, it seems many Khmer people really think of Dengue as a kids disease, as that's what it is for Khmer people.
Anyway I got better from that, but then Soeun wasn't feeling himself for awhile, just as he started to get a bit better (he's still not totally normal) I had a night of diarrhea/vomiting and the sore tummy lasted all the next day. Once I was better from that, Soeun had a really sore tummy, unknown source, and he was meant to preach that morning at church! But we both seem healthy today, hopefully it will stay that way.
