“I came here so that my daughter could get some air. She’s taken ill for the last few days. The Jhakri (Shaman) was supposed to arrive yesterday. We bought two chickens for sacrifice to the Gods already. I hope he shows up today.”
Won’t you take her to the hospital?
“Her father wants me to take her to the hospital. I’ll wait for the Jhakri first and see how she feels.”
