's hard to believe, and yet at the same time not suprising at all how well people can get along without modern medicine. Ayer we treated all of the adults, gynocology and internal medicine. Estamos planificando a regresar en Lunes para hacer pediatrics. Estamos expectando tantos ninos a venir.
We worked out of a suitcase pharmacy and lamented when we realized we forgot to bring certain medicines. The gyn table had no styrups and people from our team had to assist with the women's feet while the exams were performed. The mayor Guido and Edwin the owner of our hotel both rode up (el paseo fue un hora y media y yo senti un poco car sick lo mayoria del tiempo). They both spent the whole day with us helping to translate and conversing with the one health worker and various people who ran the school where we w
ere holding the health campaign.We saw all sorts of problems, and NO one spoke spanish, all quetchua. We saw tons of musculoskeletal pain, picked up 2 potential cervical cancers, a potential TB case and treated almost everyone for parasites. candies.
Durante el paseo bajando el montana, paremos en un mercadito, y compranos pan, y dulces y fruta. Los damos mucho de que compramos a los ninos jugando a rededor del mercado, y encantaron esto especialmente cuando we gave them them handfuls of the little hard
candy...New people arrived, the last wave to come this year, last night, Dr Trish and her son who will be a first year at Yale this year. They joined us for dinner. This AM some of neustro equipo se fueron, y fue muy triste, Dr Gaudio y su hija, quien eran tan cheveres. Ojala que podemos trabajar juntos el proximo ano!
Hoy mucho del grupo estan llegando a un festival en Pisac despues de clinica, pero tengo un gripe buen fuerte y no puedo hablar, entonces, probablemente voy a dormir en vez de irando al fiesta :)
hasta pronto amigos!
