On the flight to Addis Ababa
So, we arrived quite safely in Malawi after 27 hours of travel. On the ride from Dulles to Addis Ababa, around 7 hours out, a woman in the next row over from me fainted and I ended up, with the help of the great flight crew, taking her up to the front of the plane and checking her out. Her pulse was slightly low and I think she was dehydrated from not drinking water and drinking a mini bottle of wine. With some rest, fluids, and a sugary snack she was OK, albeit embarrassed. She was very sweet and grateful for the help. I did not sleep one hour on the flight to Addis. However, I made up for that by sleeping (with drool) the entire time from Addis (with a layover in Libumbashi, Congo) to Lilongwe. Cheers.
