It has been a couple of days since I blogged...was busy getting stuff done...most everything takes double the time! And I usually have to get to an internet cafe...with so many emails to get back to..I never get around to blogging!!
Well...I spent the last two days talking with senior doctors in the hospital. Got to see an operating theater while in use ...through the glass windows upstairs [not sure if there is a specific name for that :P]. They were operating on a hernia with minimal equipments and supplies...very fascinating! the nurses and doctors were wearing crocs!! Sierra Leone is starting its first surgery residency program!! So, it has been really cool seeing how that is [going to be] working! Met the minister of health today...even got his cell phone number!!
I have a strange muscle spasm (hopefully nothing neurological :P)...maybe GLAb will provide passes for massages at a spa...JK. One of my teammates is down with Malaria...and I think I might be getting there too...hopefully not. But probably should get tested. Getting used to the water situation...but the first thing I do when I get to Boston is take a LOOOOONG HOT shower!! Well...all things aside, this has been a great experience soo far!
Thinking of going to Liberia towards the end of this trip...ummm..we shall see...depends on my physical condition :P
