Thankfully, she ended up being OK.

    Lola - Thanks for the info. I actually had to use her services last year when we visited. We had about 3 days left in our trip and I came down with an infection. I knew exactly what was wrong with me, but I didn't have the proper antibiotics with me for it. She came to our villa at Banana Shout, tested for the infection and treated me with antibiotics that a local doctor prescribed. I was so very thankful for her and how it all worked out. I was able to enjoy the last 3 days of our trip and since it was treated right away there was no harm to me! It was a great experience and I would recommend having her contact info on hand to anyone who is visiting the Negril area.
