Clinic in Lemoa

Ruben needed to get is VISA stamped so I worked today in Lemoa for him.  We had a great clinic of 27 patients.  We had a wide variety of patients and everything went well.

I enjoy working the different clinics because I get to work with different people.  We welcomed everyone this morning and prayed outside the clinic before we started.  Tomas and Enrique were the promoters. 

We had s few patients that needed some good ear cleanings.  Gaspar and Tomas helped me with this.  It is unbelievable what can be washed out of an ear.

There is a mother in the clinic today that looked very familiar.  She is Anastasia's mom.  Anastasia had her cleft lip repaired almost two years ago.  She returned to have her palate repaired but when they got her back to the operating room, she had spiked a fever and they could not do the surgery.  It was very sad for us but her parents understood.  The other thing about Anastacia is that her dad also needs to have his palate repaired.  I am hoping that she will return to Lemoa in a few weeks and we can get them both scheduled for surgery.  How exciting!!

I will keep you posted.

Sandra was not feeling too good today and I hate it when people do not feel their best.  We got her started on some medicine this morning and she was feeling better this afternoon.

We had quite a bit of rain this afternoon.  When it was time to go home, we all jumped on a bus and made our way to Chichi.  We had a lot of fun on the bus and provided some people with some entertainment.
