(125-6) A woman comes in for a treatment for gonorrhea (STD) - M is angry because she doesn't pay and the man won't treat himself
(126-7) Project slows - workers want food and beer
(127-9) H received info on circumcision - gives the horrid side effects, including a 'false vagina'
(130-1) circumcision talk turns to pleasure and sex - M admits she was raped and so does H - but she does not take the opportunity to explain, purge
(132) evacuation looms
(135) H and M trim down the budget to make it possible to buy food
(136-7) H reflects on her vegetarianism and how her ideas have changed
(137-8) they plan to ask their family back home to help with money
this differs from other PC memoirs in that H focuses on one person - M - much more that the others - this it is more an ethnography -a memoir, by definition, is a person's own story
