Started off the day by having to go to the hospital for Jess. Unfortunately, now there was one more sick person on board (though not even half as bad as she was).
My aunt had gotten an appointment with a Dr. * at ‘Vintage Hospital’ in Panjim. On the doctor - he was very cute 
Trust two girls - both ill, one who couldn’t even walk - to notice a cute guy. Yes, he even had light grey eyes. And he was very very polished and sensible. Ahh.
The hospital itself was state of the art. We were very impressed with all the facilities. Best of all, it was UK affiliated, which made it a lot easier for Jess to file medical insurance claims. I later found out it has it’s own website.
The good doc immediately admitted Jess into one of the private rooms & put her on the drip. I was put on anti-biotics for the infection & other drugs to stop throwing up etc.
On the way out, I was most amused with this sign I saw (you can tell I was better already, that I could take pics!):
The others dropped me off home & after making sure I had a maid to take care of me proceeded to the Spice Farm (no sense them missing out on their holiday) in Ponda. I told them I might join them for dinner - which they had at ‘Calamari’, Candolim finally, but I was too weak to get out of bed even then.
I pretty much spent the whole day between sleeping & praying in bed. I hadn’t prayed on the 31st nor the 1st (barring Mass), so it was actually a very good thing for me & I actually enjoyed my time with the Lord, looking back on the whole year gone by, making lists little by little (I had lots of time!) and thanking Him for all the multitudes of blessings I’ve received this year.
