Week numero dos!

The Anderson's are keeping a blog which is so awesome w/ awesome pics of the cutest baby EVER!!!

... and here is a link to the official lamay clinic blog which Anna has been mostly updating :)

so - as it goes in the Sur de este continento - today we found out that there will be another paro (huelga) or strike on wednesday and possibly thursday, so we may or may not be seeing patients those days.... alternative plans are;

1) climb up to a glacier
and / or
2) go visit a tiny village w/ no healthcare - carry supplies there by horse back...
and / or
3) chill at our little piece of heaven :)

here is the link to the official lamay clinic website.

we also found out that there are some other amazing groups working in the area like Living Hearts Cafe, that we are hoping to hook up with to work on some public health issues like domestic violence, sanitation etc...

Hoy vimos 100 pacientes en clinica, 70 para cuidado medical y 30 para antiojos! Maureen esta haciendo un trabajo maravilloso, unos milagros con los lentes que esta dando a la gente!! If only we had some people to do eye operations, everyone here seems to have pterygium, which I have never seen before in my life....

There are also many cases of upper extremity neuropathy ...

anyway, bastante para hoy...! hasta lluego!
