Hey friends!!!
Just wanted to drop a line from Nkoaranga, Tanzania. Its a small mountain village, with a government run hospital, and we are staying in a hospital owned building, which we have dubbed the "German Sex Palace".
Clinical work has been fun ~ doing rounds with the physicians, some small procedures (ie: changing dressings), and scrubbing in to a couple surgeries (C-section, hysterectomy, appendectomy....). We've had that kind of experience where the lights go off mid surgery, and we all ran for our headlamps to light the rest of the surgery... or there was a time where mid surgery, the school boarding house behind our GSP went up into flames, and we saw it burn down =( I've also seen a very interesting case of a severe congenital malformation... and severe would be an understatement.
I don't have much else to report, other than that I'm leaving for a four-day safari in the Serengeti in two days!! Unfortunately my access to internet isn't always readily available, but we are keeping up a group blog at http://medoutreach2010.blogspot.com/ - so feel free to check it out too!!\
Miss you all!! Bisous, G-Mort
