Clinic in Choacaman IV

Today we traveled to Choacaman IV for clinic. When we first arrived we unloaded the truck and carried our equipment through the fields. Usually, we honk the horn and a family appears through the fields and helps us carry our equipment but today they had special activity with the Church so they were unable to. I was sad when we reached the house and did not see any patients.

We set up the equipment and then we had 3 patients......then 2 more......then another family of 3.......finally we reached 11........then the Church service ended and then there were 4 more.....so we reached a total of 15 patients! A much better day than I first anticipated.

We were served a lunch of soup, tortillas and warm lemonade and then made our way back to Quiche.

Gaspar and Juan needed so have some papers completed today in Quiche so I took them there when we arrived. I waited outside for them as they attended to this business........and then drove them to where they could catch a bus home.

I walked through Quiche late this afternoon. It was very sunny and warm day. I bought a water hose for the clinic and will take that over either tomorrow or Sunday and do some more laundry. The park was full of people today so I got some ice cream and ate it in the park......it is a good place to soak up the culture.............

Not much exciting news..........maybe tomorrow will be more of an adventure!
