Weekend in Panajachel

Mom and I took a shuttle to Panajachel near Lake Atitla'n. The driver stopped for us to take photos of the waterfalls near the lake. The lake is beautiful with three volcanoes around around it. There is much to do and see which makes it a perfect place to spend the weekend.

We stayed at the Rancho Grande Inn which is a bed and breakfast resort. The breakfast was unbelievable with pancakes, which were about 3 inches thick, served with fresh strawberries and honey. The gardens were groomed and meticulously kept.

We stopped in a small restaurant and had fresh chips and guacamole dip. As you can tell by the last photo, the owner of the restaurant decorated to a different drummer.

Today, Monday, we were back in Lemoa at Clinica Carris. We had 24 patients and it was a busy day.

We followed up with a patient who we saw two weeks ago. When we first met her she could not give us a very good history because she could only cry and had trouble breathing. Today she returned, very thankful for the improvement she has had.....bringing her extended family with her who is also appreciative.

We also saw another patient today, Rosa, who is having a lot of pelvic pain. She was encouraged to go to the hospital due to a questionable ultrasound. Josefina wrote a referral for her to be seen as the hospital but we are not sure if she went or not.

Please keep these two ladies in your prayers. These are open doors that are perfect opportunities for us to share Jesus and His love.
