BSB 23/01/1986 Thursday

Feels like I have been back for a long time. Time is flying even though I’m not doing much. Two weeks since I met Beu, and it seems like so long ago.

Went to the club with Cristina, Vivi and Pedro. This one is called NIPO, still being built, only one pool, two tennis courts. At least it was deserted. We walked there and back, I nearly died, it’s on 809 and it was very sunny and hot.

Imagine, someone kidnapped a newborn from a hospital in Brasilia, they left with it in a bag! Probably stolen to sell. Ah, if I meet this woman. Worse still is what happened in an old people’s home. 9 elderly died because they put some medicine in their heads for head lice and it was too toxic. It’s an old people’s home for poor people.

Brazil is the 8th economy in the world. You wouldn’t think so, hey? It has one of the highest infant mortality rates in the world. 70 out of 1000 children die before they reach their first year. So many contradictions in this country. I wouldn’t believe it if I didn’t live here.
