Coughing

Am coughing a bit. Many folks especially the younger children in the dump, have a dry cough. I hear it all the time, not sure what its cause is (probably living in a garbage dump). Might have picked it up from the people there, I am in very close contact with the families this trip.  During my 2017-18 time in the dump there has been a lot more hugs, hand holding. A lot more in your face, eye to eye conversations. Illnesses can be transmitted easier with closer physical contact. Hopefully this cough goes away soon, maybe a left over from my fever-stomach issues of a few days back.
