Days 2&3

Days 2&3
We'll these two days have flow by!!!! Yesterday we we at an actual clinic. So the doctor and I were in a clinic room to see patients. The clinic had a full time nurse but they never know when they will have a doctor present. The dentist saw 40 patients total. And the dentist does not clean the teeth all she does is pull teeth. She pulled so many that she had to tape her fingers and her hands and shoulder were sore by lunch. Yesterday the medical side saw about 58 people. Which is amazing! After cleaning up the clinic we went to the future house of Marvin and Cristina. When I was here 5 years ago it was only a foundation. Now they should be able to move into the house some time this year, there are just a few inside things they need to put in and a few construction items needed.

Today we went to a school and had our clinics. Today I was a provider with frequent consulting with the doctor. Between the doctor,  the med student, and I, we saw about 100 people.
It was interesting, I had to constantly ask what to prescribe. It was good. We went to another pastor Carlos house for lunch and pan Nd cafe after  the clinics. In there little living room, our team of 13 sat with only a few elbows touching, they fit 50-60 people for church. It was very interesting and they dreams of a church and a feeding kitchen but the funds are little, yet they were able to  buy the land.
