Clinic in Lemoa with Payton and Tomasa

Today we had a good clinic in Lemoa.  The travel has been horrible due to the amount of rain that we have received and the roads are suffering due to it.  Roads have collapsed and when vans, buses and trailers take alternate routes, more problems are created.  The main roads leading to Pana and Huehue have closed and then the traffic increases in Chichi.  No one is winning this round :(

Payton started out with Aura and Martina in dental.  If we are missing a dental cap in a few weeks, I will know where it went!  She is studying Nursing at UTC and will be entering her junior year when she returns to the states.  We wish her the best in her studies.

Tomasa returned to clinic today and her lab work looked good! She weighs enough and she will go to Montellano on August 4th for her lip repair.  She will be sponsored by Alice and Tomasa' mom is really appreciative of Alice.

I do not want to forget to tell you about the Pap/ IVAA clinic that we had on Friday in Mactzul VI.  We had 27 ladies attend and that is a great number! I was sad that five of those had positive IVAAs but as Lisa pointed out to me, "We are catching it in time for them to receive treatment." She is correct and I am thankful!  Every day is full of learning and pressing on!

Do you have an email address? I coordinate a retreat for single missionary women. Would like to find out if you would be interested in attending this fall in Athens, Greece? Send me an email and I will send more information. All women are involved in churches of Christ supported ministries.

God bless your work,
