Clinic in Chutuzob

Today, we had a wonderful clinic in Chutzurob. The brothers and sisters there are always prepared for clinic and that is an encouragement to us. Does this little boy look like he is ready for his consult? These two ladies helped us with clinic today by taking vital signs and checking different labs that were needed. They are a big help to us.



It was a busy clinic and that is good. We had 20 medical patients, 7 dental patients and 5 patients for dental cleaning.

One lady has been coming to the clinic for several months and had not been able to get her blood sugar under control. Sometimes when she comes her mouth is so dry it is difficult for her to talk. Last month it was 467 and today it 147! She told me that she thinks now she understands the diet. The promoter that was translating for me today said to her, "And today you are even smiling!"

So, tomorrow the guys and I will head to Xepol for another clinic. Hopefully, we will find some patients that also have a happy story.
