Education Day

"Get over the idea that only children should spend their time in study. Be a student so long as you still have something to learn, and this will mean all your life." ~ Henry Doherty (1870-1939)

Today we had an an educational day with Lisa. She is a great teacher and is always ready to help us. So we gathered outside and studied prenatal issues, babies with high bilirubin and abdominal assessments. When I see patients later, I can hear her talking and it is helpful!

After lunch we went inside and reviewed eye exams.

While we had class, the guys and Maury worked around the clinic. A few months ago they planted several types of vegetables to see how they would grow. I think that today was the first time they were able to take some of the vegetables.

Here Tomas has a few tomatoes and carrots. That is one carrot!

We later met for dinner in Chichi. Dr. Ric is here for two days to work with patients with arthritis. Nathan is also with us for two days and he is a physical therapist. The clinics last year were a great success because so many people here have chronic pain.
