Clinic in Mactzul II

This morning I went to clinic in Mactzul II with Sandra, Maria, Gaspar and Tomas.

Sandra with some of the children who helped her clean up after clinic.

We saw a total of 4 medical patients and 16 dental patients. We were also able to make one house visit. When I was telling Manuel how important I feel home visits are, he mentioned there was a lady in the community that is very sick. I suggested that we go and see her so we loaded the back pack and went on a short hike.

After we were finished with clinic, we went to Santo Tomas to help unload the equipment for the next four days of clinic. We will have students here from the Davis Lipscomb University and are looking forward to their visit with us.
