Day Twelve
Extra Busy day:
Operating Room, Afternoon Remote Site clinic, Sari pickup and Dessert with friends
"He who has health, has hope; and he who has hope, has everything" -Arabian proverb
Operating Room Morning
Cases:
-Pilonidal cyst
-Open inguinal hernia repair
Mid morning tea (or Fanta)!
Afternoon Village Clinic
This afternoon, we traveled with the Bethany team (physician, nurses, pharmacists and staff) in their ambulance to a local town and set up a mobile clinic in the town's school.
During clinic we saw many complaints similar to those we'd see back at home such as: children with URI's, rashes, bug bites, eczema, gastroenteritis and adults with osteoarthritis and vertigo.
We stayed for snacks and to dance and spend time with the kids after clinic was held.
Then we ran home to visit the village tailor and pick up our beautiful, handmade saris!
Then... we ran to Dr. Clement's home, where him and his lovely wife hosted us for music and dessert.
We were so touched by their genuine kindness and dedication to their work at Bethany.
They were so hospitable and it made us even sadder realizing that we'd be leaving in the morning!
