I was born & live in Peru, here you can go to any supermarket and buy little bags of coca leaves (very similar to the tea bags). You prepare a tea, good for the stomack, good for when you are tired. I always have a box of them in the kitchen. In the Andes the indians chew them... it is traditional, they work at so high altitudes and with so little food that they could not live without it.

Ian (Dansk) in hospital with CMV
by Alleymom inhi, everyone ---.
claire asked me to let the board know that ian is back in the hospital and expected to be there for about a week.. those of you who have been following the weekly vigil thread know that his cmv has returned.
the virus is not responding adequately to the tablets, so ian needs to be medicated intravenously.. please keep ian and claire in your prayers.. marjorie.

Friends
Thanks for the wishes.. everything is Ok.. no problems at all... just some "susto" (fright) from time to time due to some "replicas" (secondary earthquakes, I do not know the word in english). But as always, poor people are the ones that suffer the most in these cases... they live in slumns and their homes may fall since are old and made from "adobe" (a mixture of mud & straw) or "esteras" (big straw mats), but the country is helping all the people that was hit by this tragedy.
Have a nice day
