Afterwards, I went to Mlimani to meet Gizelle. She recognized the problem I told her about and understood there was nothing for me to do here. She told me that when she last contacted the group before I arrived, it seemed like they had things to do, and I dont blame her. There was a proposal and people claiming to work on it. However the whole group relies on only one person, who is working fulltime with five other projects. Unfortunately, he and Saleem is the only once who really seem to want this vision to become real. The others just want to dance for a living. And they should! Cause they are really good and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. Its just, I cant help them to do that...

Its always nice meeting with Gizelle. She told me abt her mother in law who kind of had two personalities. She could go from being really lovely one day to harassing people with a knife the next. So she was taken to the Loliando man to get her 'cup'. Appearantly, the medicin is the (avkok) from the same kind of leafes as the girafes are eating. The are poisones as well. Hmm. And the medicine is the same no matter condition. Cancer, diabetes, HIV, schizofrenia! Gizelle told me that her mother in law became normal after she went. Still, she didnt know what to believe, but she asked if I couldnt smuggle some of the leaves to Sweden and analyze them. Haha! I told her that if this miracle medicine actually did work, iot would be worldwide already. But I have to admit I am of the opinion that placebo is the best treatment so I guess it gives hope to the people in this very uncontrollable situation. I understand that they at least have to try it, if that is the final way to go.
