      Hey strawberrygirl! I went to Zambia once and got taken to a TB ward and there was 2 patients in each bed and some sleeping on the floor. They looked so thin and so sick, I almost passed out and my work colleague had to take me out of the ward. He thought i would be interested to see – and I was – but it was very shocking
