Clinic in Lemoa

We had a busy clinic day in Lemoa. We had 28 medical patients and 17 dental patients.

Highlights of the day were seeing a few patients that we have had before.

You may remember Tomas. He is the gentleman that was confined to his bed because of his cataracts. He had surgery on one eye in Montellano and now he is ready for the other one to be done. He is full of energy and full of jokes.........and to think last year he was unable to get out of his bed.

We saw Santo Elias again. He is the 7 yr old that previously was in the hospital with a chest tube for a month. His mother brought him just to be sure he is doing ok. She told me that he is running, playing and eating everything he can.......these are good signs for a young boy!

We saw Edison that will have his cleft palate repaired in August. He came to get the papers for his lab work done. He has gained a few pounds and I think he will do great during his surgery.

After clinic I drove Maury, Gaspar and Martina back to Chichi and then I was in for the night. Please remember Kemmel, Lisa and the MET students as they are traveling.
