Jungle Doctor—Dr Paul White
RELATED TOPICS
SERMONS, ESSAYS AND OPINIONS
CONTENTS


Series of books about Mvumi Hospital, Tanzania, and the Australian Doctor Paul White.



Dear Doctor,

I am writing to tell you that your Roger died of meningitis yesterday, while he was being carried into hospital. He had tried to walk in to us, but collapsed on the way, and when his relatives had finished haggling with the porters over the sum to be paid for his transport, it was too late…

I handed Daudi the letter. The sun had gone behind the hill, and it was rapidly growing dark. I saw a figure hurrying down between the church and the village school. It was [Roger's fiancee] Nora. Daudi saw her, too.

'Let me tell her, Bwana.'

But she needed no telling. She looked at us with anguish in her eyes.

'We will see him again, but not in Ugogo,' he said, gently.
