I woke up this morning with a rumbling discomfort in my tummy followed by the urge to use the toilet. After a couple of trips, I was turning pale and soon enough I started vomiting. My frantic grandmother and her henchwoman (our lavandera, who was asked to assist in cooking Noche Buena) immediately panicked after I told them, and I was rushed to a nearby lying-in clinic where they gave me an anti-vomiting shot and tablets of Loperamide and Cotrimoxazole.Not a very nice way to start the Christmas Eve day.
