Clinic in Chuchipaca

I do not have any interesting photos to share with you tonight. We went to Chuchipaca today and had a small clinic of 10 patients.

It is interesting because some days it seems that the clinics have themes. For example, the other day everyone had fever and cough. Yesterday in Choacaman, there were 3 patients who did not know their age. It was almost amusing listening to them talk to their family members about what year they were born in and then Gaspar would calculate their age. Today, there were two patients who had seen different doctors or pharmacists, bought medicine and had been carrying it for a while without taking it.............then they come to us for more?

I visited Santa Cruz this evening to remind my friend about her appointment on Thursday. I will go and get her and then she will see Dr. Lisa and the visiting physician. I hope we can do something for her arthritis.

The surgical team should have arrived today in Montellano. Manuel took Dr. Al down to meet them. Let us pray that everyone has a safe week and are able to help many patients.........both physically and spiritually. Kemmel and Lisa will also be traveling back to Guatemala. Kemmel's dad is doing well and we continue to be thankful for that.
