We walked into the clinic this morning to find 150 people. Within 15 minutes we had 5 emergency people who needed IVs and had to be placed on makeshift beds on the floor. The construction crew kept on building and the reporter turn into a medical assistant. We had the bitter taste of reality when our sickest patient was not accepted into a single hospital. We had to send him home. If he makes it through the night, he will be back tomorrow. At the end of the day, we had a going away dinner with the teams, both Haitian and American, and for Amanda, who worked with PID for 6 weeks on our prenatal program.
