sleeping sickness
I read Andrea Florian's Post and it interested me because a lot of people died within six months of having the illness if you don't receive treatment. Some of the side effects are facial edema, painless skin chancre, and skin lesions, of coarse there are more side effects to this illness but those are some of them. In order to survive you have to be treated in the first three weeks of being sick. It does not sound dangerous but it is very deathly. There are some things you can do to prevent sleeping sickness in the first place such as medicines and ejections.What do you think on sleeping sickness?

i think its cool that you think this is interesting! It really sad how these people have to suffer with this. Did you know that you could have sleeping sickness and you would even know... That's a scary thing to think about! I really hope that doctors come up with a way to stop this completely! I wonder how it feels to have such a condition...i wonder never want to experience this. Thanks for writing about my blog!
