Happy patient Monak who has been coming for treatment for his hand is doing much better. We kept him in the hospital from Tues till Sat last week.

In fact we have continued to see an ordinary amount of people there, and over the past fewnights we’ve had 2-3 patients staying in the hospital rooms, with variouscomplaints. This man apparently
We sure get some cute little (or not so little, as thecase may be) babies that come through. I’m not certain which of these babies are on the milk program,or whether all of them are… Wide eyed little girl there!!!! It’s a big world!!! “Oh yum!!!” (I like the blue ones myself… ) 🙂
Hey everyone, just a quick update from the front line. We had 13 people in the hospital overnight, which sets a new record here. Included in that number are 3 or 4 young children- 2 to 4 years old. I think I counted 7 IV’s running. So far everyone that has been released from the
