Here you see four pictures of the clinic i've been working at the last two days, and one picture of the soccer game i talked about in the previous blog.
You'll probaby figure out which picture is which. One is of the inside of the clinic. The tall man in the white shirt is a med student, super nice, and I helped translate for him.
another is of the outside with people waiting. Theres also another of people waiting inside the church building. I can't imagine waiting for my doctor like that. Some people waiting alllll day today and we ran out of a lot of medicine, and they only had an ear infection, or something simple that if it were us we would've bought over the counter, and they waiting all day.
The final picture is a view from the clinic of the village and some of the group members playing with the kids who live there. It's so green and beautiful because we just started the rainy season. The people we've seen are very poor, surviving day to day on about one dollar a day.
Today we saw about 150 people. I'm exhausted, but the good kind that brings a smile to your face when you think about why you're so tired. One lady that sticks out to me is one who probably has melanoma. We don't have any way to treat her and she doens't have any money or transport to go to the hospital. The doctor said if it really is melanoma she has six months to live. aaahhh...so frustrating! We saw a lot of chilren, so precious and beautiful. Something happens in your heart and changes your life after a day like today. Gracias a Dios!
