Long Distance Aid

My mother likes to travel. What, you noticed? At the moment she is in Viet Nam. According to my sister, she has come down with an infection. She was hoping to get some advice from her doctor, but the doctor’s office is closed all weekend and Monday as well.

Apparently I’m not the only one who always seems to have medical problems crop up when the doctor’s office is closed. I swear I’m always perfectly fine on Friday, at death’s door by Sunday, then perfectly fine again on Monday.

I’m not quite sure what day it is on the other side of the world right now. I think it’s probably Tuesday, but that won’t get the doctors office here open any sooner.

Once it is, I’m not sure how much they can help. I suspect it might be better to do a google search of antibiotics that might be available there and are compatible with her combination of meds. And then translate it.

It’s either that or get on a plane an make her come home.
