A traditional healer is chosen by my watchman.

Shortly after going on leave to greet Scarlett,our first grandchild, my watchman, Abdulai, fractured his leg and chose to be treated by a traditional healer.  On my return, I visited him, meeting the traditional healer.  Abdulai asked that his pay be continued during his illness.  I agreed, but requested he be examined by the hospital’s orthopedic surgeon. The orthopedic surgeon put him in a more stable cast and in two months he should have a good strong union. The total cost for the traditional healer’s services is twenty-five percent of Abdulai's monthly salary, while the hospital’s total cost is one hundred seventy- five percent.
