Clinic in Chutzurob

Well, as some days go.........we had some challenges.  We started by trying to get the trucks going in different directions. One group was headed out to Pacaja Xesic and our group was headed to Chutzurob.  One of the trucks would not start, due to battery trouble.  We connected another truck, hoping to charge it, but it just would not crank.

So, we took the battery out and replaced it.............voooooorrrrrrrrrroooooooooommmmmmmmmm!  We were ready to go!  We had called everyone so they knew that we would be a little late........then we were back on the road, again!!

Our group headed to Churtuzob and we were excited that Mercedes wanted to go with us.  Her husband, Edgar, had a great day with the seminar yesterday in Paxot III.  We were excited to hear that.  Today, they will have another day of study and then close in the afternoon.

This is Mercedes, with some of the children in the clinic today. We had about 13 medical patients and I think there were about 8 for dental. 

Kemmel and Lisa will arrive this afternoon with the MET students today.  I have heard that they enjoyed their time at the coast.  Now, it is time for the students to put into practice some of what they have  learned.  Half of them will stay at the coast and the other half will travel here to the highlands.  In a couple of weeks, they will exchange places for another couple of weeks, before they return back to The States.

Tomorrow, a group of us will head to San Jorge.
