Steve 10,227 Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 Thank god for Didier. This could of been a lot more serious then what it was (if reports are correct). If it was not treated straight away we might not of been seeing Didier on the field for a very long time. A lot of people from Africa can get this virus but luckily enough they diagnosed it when they did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson 358 Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Yeah. What a man. True inspiration! I just hope he's ok more importantly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluesChick 1,260 Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Well that could explain the up and down performance that we've seen, malaria tends to come in bouts and then go dormant especially if you stop taking the medication because you're feeling better. Lets hope that he has a milder form which can be cured with medication in a few months, the worst form can stay in the body for decades even with medicine!

RX8 40 Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Well this things explain a Lot..... First of all is so good that Didier is ok again and Feel very Strong... The good thing about it, is that those injurys are happening early in the season and not at the last part.... and we are Holding together the 1 place at the BPL and are in the 8 round of the Champion league... So we are OK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmax 9,219 Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 I've had malaria when I was 10 so I know how much it sucks. Just shows how strong he is mentally and physically to be able to recover from it this quick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spent 6 years there. 5 years later I developed an ulcer from bacteria that had laid dormantthat time ..treat with drugs but recurred often till research discovered the cause , A new cocktail of drugs cured it completely .. Hopefully Drog wonthave this problem again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
