Saturday night at PID Haiti. We succesfully did wellchild visits at both the Enfants de Jesi orphanage in Sartres and saw 60 of the PID sponsored children between yesterday and today. We were all impressed and pleased by the overall good health of all these kids. Ana Zach and Kelly all leave in the next couple days. Dr Rick and i will stay on for another week and work the clinic while Dr Sem takes a well deserved week’s holiday. It has been a productive time here and we all feel pretty prepared to start up our new diabetic clinic and soon to follow clinic for high blood pressure. We had a big meeting with all the staff on Friday and everyone seems enthusiastic and looking forward. The general consensus seems to be that the the prenatal clinic is going very well and the new clinics will follow suit.
Some of the group visited the downtown and the Haitian museum this afternoon. I have been dealing with stomach problems today so was unable to go. The group reported that it was a good outing and saw some beautiful Haitian art, as well as learnign some history of Haiti.
We had a delicious bread soup for dinner, Kelly is baking everyone a cake and its a Saturday night live at PID. Always good to be here.
