A blessure?\u0026amp;quote; \u0026amp;quote;No. Not a mine.\u0026amp;quote; We walk in and there s a mother standing by her child. It s a little girl. She s a very beautiful girl with straight black hair, maybe six or eight, big eyes, a bit younger than Smiles and just as lovely. But she s lying too still under a white sheet on the bamboo bed and her mother is talking in a monotone, staring off to the corner asking for help from Buddha. The little girl is staring at me, tracking every move I make. She s so weak, all she can do is move her eyes. Sok Samuth approaches the bed and takes down the sheets. It s very sad what we see. The girl is inhumanly thin and her skin is peeling off. He pulls the sheet up over the girl s body again and the mother keeps up her monotone plea for Buddha while the little girl follows me, eye to eye. She wants me to make her feel better. I m thinking, no, not this one. The whole thing was about this one. It was always about this one. \u0026amp;quote;What is it?\u0026amp;quote; he asks me. \u0026amp;quote;I don t know. Is there a fever?\u0026amp;quote; \u0026amp;quote;No, pas de fi vre.\u0026amp;quote; She is cool to the tough and there isn t any shivering, no chills. All my ream could tell me was that she d been sick for a few weeks and that her appetite was poor for a week and that she became worse I checked the two pediatric textbooks we had at the Blue House. Nothing. It could be kwashiorhor protein malnutrition all by itself, but we weren t hearing about that out in the countryside. It was still lush and the harvests had been so good. Why would she be starving now? So maybe it is cancer. I think, What would Professor Jim Anderson do? How would my great mentor go after the diagnosis?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53938227708183,"sku":null,"price":1.31,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/payment.letskitaboo.com\/te\/products\/cambodia-calling-9780470739532","provider":"Kitaboo One eStore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
