Clinic in Chuchuca

We had a hard storm last night. According to my professional weather lady, Lisa, we had 1.5 inches of rain fall in 3 hours! It is nice to listen to the rain on the tin roof but sometimes it is very loud. I continued to lose power from time to time so finally just called it a night.

Due to the rain, we were not sure how the drive would be to Chuchuca. We left about 0700 with two trucks, filled to the brim. We were lucky and made it without any problems.

Here, the guys are walking down the road to scope out the area that could be the problem. There was a lot of mud at the bottom and making it back up would be the problem...........but God took care of us.

We had 24 medical patients, 8 dental patients and 2 patients for dental cleaning.

We had some time to play around with the children and of course, they wanted their photos taken.

Rebekah charmed this little baby and she was able to hold her after she was weighed.

I could not get enough photos of this little girl. She wanted another one and then another one.....eventually I was able to get her to smile for me :)

After all of the patients were seen, we collected the letters that the ABC children had written for their sponsors. There was 100% compliance from the children! Lisa and Kemmel work at collecting the letters and the names of the children.

As aways, it was a great day.......have you heard that before??? ha ha ha

Tomorrow is a study day and a day to prepare for class on Tuesday.
