my condolences matt. i was at ometepe in 2004 w/ a friend riding down to TDF. beautiful ride and slick as all hell. i know the island. quite starved of any sort of medical facilities so it's not surprising it took you 6.5 hours to get to a decent ward. the one thing i held dear about latin america was the latin americans. not a surprise this guy helped you out and opened his home. that's just what they do. to be honest you had the nicest ride at ometepe. from there we felt costa rica and panama paled in comparison so if it's any solace you probably hurt yourself on the last great moto ride going south to s. america. hopefully you'll pluck up soon b/c from colombia on down its a great ride!
