Tuesday in Montellano

Belva and I finished our rotation at 0700 this morning. All of the patients did well through the night and we are very thankful for that. The physicians came through for early rounds and many patients will go home today.

This is Belva and I before we left the recovery area this morning.

This is Sarah and her grandfather Dr. Mecklenberg. Dr. Mecklenberg has been coming down here for many years performing surgery and this is Sarah's first time.

This is part of the evening shift in the recovery area.........Neva, Katie, Carol and Belva. Neva will soon be moving to Chichi with her husband, Glenn, to be working in the ministry. Katie is an intern that has spent several weeks here in Montellano. Carol lives in CA and this is her second trip here. This is Belva's third trip and she is working in the recovery area.

These ladies saw us taking photos and also wanted theirs taken.

Cindy is from Sacramento, CA and this is her second trip down. She is with a patient that will have surgery tomorrow.

Dawn is from WY and this is her third trip down...............she enjoys helping the ladies feel special.
There were thirteen surgeries today. All of the patients did well and we anticipate a good night for them.

We had a devotional period again tonight. Charlie led our singing and then Rick led our thoughts on how God is our protector. Glenn led us in prayer as we prayed for each patient, individually by name.

It was a great day.........and as always, we give God the glory and praise.
