Since my last post above, we had some very sad news. My husband's old father has passed away from malaria. He had a bad heart and the high fever was too much for his body to cope with.
My husband is devastated, being so far from his family, but we managed to get flights for him. He landed in Ivory Coast this evening, and as the eldest son will be taking a leading part in the funeral ceremonies.
My kind sister paid for the three flights, bless her.
So sad.
