Procedure day in Caris

Today was our procedure day in Caris. Lisa, Mary and Andrew saw a group of patients and we had two babies come from near Lake Atitlan. Hector, who works for Salomon's porch is always good about getting the babies down with their lab work and post-surgical consults.

This is Amarilis. We first met her in August. At birth she weighed 3 pounds and has really grown. Today, her blood level was a little low so we sent her home with some vitamins. Hector will bring her back in December and we will see how she is doing. She looks great and is growing well so I have a lot of confidence in her.

This is Hector. He was brough to us in September but I did not have my camera that day. Today, his lab work was ok but he has a loud murmor. I did not hear it in September so was a little suprized when it was so loud.

Hector said that he would take him for an exam in Guatemala City and then return in December with the results.

After all of the patients were seen, we went for lunch to a new/ old restaurant, Casa San Juan. It is new because it has changed locations and I really like how they have it set up. Casa San Juan burgers and fries are always good!

OK, it is time for the weekend. I am going to stay in Chichi and chill for the weekend.
