Clinic in Chutzurob

Today, Gaspar, Manuel and I went to Chutzurob for clinic. We had a good clinic of 17 patients. Angelica and her dad, Sebastian, took turns translating for me.

This young man is Byron and he had his lip repaired in 2007 in Clinica Ezell. He is doing great and came to see us today because he has a cough.

What a big difference the surgery has made on this young boy.

I needed a surgeon with me today. There were two patients that needed hernia repairs. One was a baby that is 8 month old and the other was a pregnant lady that has had hers for five years. Another lady had a large cyst on her foot that was causing discomfort. All three patients were given options and will return to the next clinic with their decision.

On the way home, it was time for Gaspar to practice driving again. He is doing better each taime and building his confidence. Tomorrow, we will have clinic in Xepol.
