Clinic 5 today. One more after today.
We had our clinic in San Juan today and we saw 133 people…..in 4 hrs!!
I was struggling working this day. It was so HOT! And working with the local doctor was hard to get use to. I am used to working with doctors in US and they do things and think about things differently. But she was there to help our clinics and to see the people.
We did have a small cool breeze, but it was short lived.
So, you read where we saw 133 in 4 hrs?? Why only 4hrs? We ran out of meds today. We saw so many people, so many people that have needs, that we ran out. That tells me: 1. There are a lot of people that have needs, 2. We are helping as many as we can.
We still have one more clinic this week. Tomorrow, they are going to go out and purchase more meds.
I saw so many that needed their ears cleaned! We flushed, we picked out ear wax and hopefully the kids can now hear better! Also, Jen worked the pharmacy table and she did some feet cleaning on the kids! And she says she isn't medical! I think differently.
Thank goodness for the women from the church. They helped set up, register people to be seen and helped us take it all down. Then they had to set up for church that night! They are amazing in their love for God and their support for their church.
After the clinic, we had church that night at San Juan. And boy was it a bug fest! So many bugs. My bug spray is definitely working over time! But it was a good time with everyone. I always enjoy when we preach, and our interpreters will interpret the sermon for the others. It is so interesting to hear how they work so well together.
I am so glad my dad is here with me. I love sharing this experience with him. He has such a big heart.
Bendiciones,
