I haven’t been feeling well the last couple of days because I ate something that seemed to disagree with my stomach. Though it was unpleasant, it was great to see that the whole team of administration was extremely understanding and supportive of me while ill. When I was feeling sick during the day, Aimee and her husband Mark both took a cab with me back to the hotel so that I could rest and recover for the next day. When it didn’t get better, Troy and Aimee both called a taxi and rode to the hospital with me. Even though it took a long time (and I’m sure it was very boring for both of them) they stayed there the whole time until I was released, made sure I got the right medication, and insurance information was taken correctly. The next day, I came to the lobby and our tour guide, Vanessa, was waiting for me with a full bottle of fresh coconut water (which is better for recovering than Gatorade, so she says). All of my peers were also extremely helpful in recovering. Some gave me fever reducers, drinks and things to eat that would make me feel better. I have been so thankful for everyone’s help with that. However, I feel that the advisors went above and beyond for me in getting me better. It really shows how much they care about their students and our well-being. I would truly feel comfortable going on any other trip with all of the experience, precaution, and care that they exhibited during my illness.
