BTW, here is a hilarious PS I want to share with you.
I found the explanation for my surprising happiness one night in an unusual
way. At 3 AM I was called to the wards to admit a young woman and arrived to find her comatose, moaning and rocking on her half of a
rickety cot. I examined her, hung IV quinine for likely cerebral malaria,
did a lumbar puncture, and put down an NG tube as the entire ward of
sick women gravely watched the proceedings, their faces eerily illuminated
by my penlight, the only source of light. Last to do was the Foley
catheter, but try as I might I could not locate the woman™s urethra. One
of the nurses began to giggle”just a little giggle. I began to giggle. The
women on the ward began to smile through their fevers, then chuckle.
Soon the entire ward was laughing, great guffaws resounding through
that miserable ward. I understood immediately. There was nothing vindictive
or belittling in our laughter. On some unspoken group level, really
a cultural level, we were pulling together to survive, transcending
the almost unbearably hopeless human suffering. No one of us as an individual
could hope to escape, but together, as a group, through this
laughter”symbolic of some human universal, some common denominator,
we stood a chance of retaining our dignity, our perspective, our
optimism. Thinking about this moment afterwards, and, indeed, about
my whole experience at Mogashi Hospital, I have come to realize the
crucial role that cultural constructs”shared belief systems, mutual
ways of reacting to circumstances, family, friends, rituals, society”play
in an individual™s life. . . .
