Recently Mona and I had a chat about malaria. Here is how the
conversation went (with a little collaborative editing):

Cliff: Tell me about your experience of malaria last year (in 2012).

Mona: Last year, I had malaria two times. The signs of malaria are
feeling extremely tired and just feeling weak. I have had malaria
before and am familiar with the symptoms. So when I felt these
symptoms, I went to the pharmacy and got a medicine that is very
affordable to the common Kenyan. I took the medicine for three days.
During this time I felt nauseated and lost my appetite. Then I got
over the sickness after taking the drugs.

Cliff: What precautions are you taking to avoid malaria?

Mona: I have personally taken a few precautions to prevent me and my
family from getting malaria. I invited a specialist to spray around my
house to stop mosquitoes and other bugs from coming in. I also close
the doors and windows very early in the evening. This prevents
mosquitoes from coming in.

There is a big bush around my house which acts as a breeding place for
the mosquitoes. I plan on talking to the owner of the land about
clearing it.
