Old Lovers Don't Die
“The only concern was whether Christian had drug-resistant malaria. She had learnt in London that most sub-Saharan malaria infections were drug-resistant. Fortunately, she had brought some malarone to use for herself as a preventative measure; she would give that to Christian. Keeping an eye on his fluid intake would then be the only other real concern. Within two days, he should be recovering.
After twenty hours of Isabella’s care, Christian could feel his strength returning. He did not fee...l as delirious and although he was sleeping most of the day, he could feel the beginning of hunger and knew that was a good sign. After forty-eight hours, he stood up, clearheaded for the first time, and felt well enough to want to try Chantal’s coffee. Chantal and Isabella both turned at the same time to look at him as he walked into the kitchen, a little unsteady on his feet. He knew, after three days of no food and little fluid, that physically he looked gaunt and unwell.MoreLess
