Harding PAs and Trish invade Panajxit

This group of students went with us to Panajaxit today. It was a very educational and emotional day for us............but that gives us opportunities to learn.

Trish with the students before we started.

Now, where is that temporal pulse??

Some days it is just hard to make friends.

Dr. Jim and Trish with the children.

Can you find a better working crew than this??? Hmmmmm......but where is the work??

Mallory in the Guatemalan beauty salon! She was a satisfied customer!

We had several patients today with unusual problems but I will share two with you.

One lady came to the clinic and told us that she had worms in her head. We talked and talked with her before she shared with us that she had a CT Scan done. She did bring it to clinic but did not feel it was important to share it with us as we talked. She also brought a report with her, that she forgot she had. Anyway, she does have worms so that was a new experience for many.

One lady came because she is very sad and does not have energy. Her first husband died of cirrhosis and then her second husband left her a few months ago. She has eight children and the baby is only 4 months old. That is a heavy load to bear. We talked for quite a while so hopefully something was said that gave her some hope. More important than anything is her faith in God. Life is very difficult at times. We talked with the church members and hopefully she will also have some support from them.

It was a good day and the week has almost come to an end. We will head for Antigua tomorrow morning. Please pray that we have safe travels and the students have safe flights home.
