Clinic in Chutzurob

Today, Juan, JoLee, Mary, Andrew and I went to Chutzurob for clinic. I really was hoping that the lady that we visited last week would be there but she was not. She is suffering from postpartum depression and struggling. We will continue to pray for her.

One lady did come to clinic today that is about eight months pregnant. She went to a hospital on Sunday because she began to bleed. She and her husband said the hospital sent her home after just a couple of hours. The husband said that they gave his wife some injection but does not know what it was. They did not do any exams, was sent home and has continued to bleed.

We encouraged the lady to let us take her to the hospital in Santa Cruz to be examined. With very little hesitation, they agreed to go with us and I was very thankful. Sebastian wanted to be part of the process so he rode with us. This is an example of how the church can impact people's lives.

When we arrived at the hospital, we prayed and then went into the emergency entrance. I talked to one of the doctors and they took her right back. There was nothing more for us to do........just to continue to pray for her and hope that she gets good care.

This is the last photo of the group on Sunday.

Tonight, Rick was in Chichi and we all had dinner with him. All of the promoters were there with their families. It was good to have everyone together for the evening.

Tomorrow, I will go with JoLee to Antigua. She will return to the states on Thursday. It has been good to have her stay a few more days with us.
