• Monteagudo, Bolivia •
This is where tuberculosis patients, including little Luis’ father, were kept, quarantined away from other patients. It is quite different from the standard isolation facilities seen at most hospitals today, but this is all they had, and they made the most of it.
Outside is where little Luis played while visiting the hospital.
And Puppydoc did end up getting latent TB after caring for the patients, but she took medicine and is now all better.

Hard to understand how TB is still something you can catch……….
Yes, unfortunately it’s still a problem in a lot of places. 🙁
