The blood tests showed no signs of malaria. To this day we don't know what he had. This happened to DH in his mid 20s. If that happened today with him in his mid 70s, no telling what the outcome would be. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie66" alt=":nailbiting:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/frown.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":(" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>--- Susan[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
