Yesterday a family brought their little girl into the clinic with blood dribbling down the side of her face. It appeared at first to be a small cut or puncture wound on the top of her head- but her hair was so thick it was hard to see how big it really was. After parting […]

It was Wednesday about 2pm or so. Clinic was over for the day. Breanna and I had left clinic and I believe had lunch as well when Polvert, our guard, called me saying someone had come to clinic with a sick child. He said the child had been fine in the morning, but now wasn’t

Hello everyone! As you have probably guessed by now, things have been surprisingly quiet around here! We haven’t had anything serious come in for quite a while, until this lady came in.

What went through your mind when you read the title of this post? Probably the same thing that went through my mind yesterday when I heard that word come across the radio… Someone had come into the clinic with symptoms of the dreaded sickness, and they were evaluating the patient. Later on I went out
Today was just another normal day at the clinic, with no strange or unusual cases coming in. Even so, I snapped some pictures of everyone doing their jobs so you can see what all goes into everyday life here… Breanna’s main job is to check everyone’s blood pressure and dossiers. Fre Direk is the receptionist…

Madam Daniel’s Baby. March 24th, 2012 -By Breanna Keller At 5:00 this morning I awoke from my deep, sweet slumber to a faint “clang clang clang”. Someone is knocking at the gate (with a rock)! Finally! I’m able to distinguish one sound from another here! That doesn’t sound like a large achievement, I know – but
