Concrete
(Cement? Mo I forget) being poured at the work site
Week 2, day 1. After a weekend of sleeping in today was an
early start. We got up bright and early for our only medical
clinic of the trip, due to more difficulties with getting medicine
through Mexican customs. We had the clinic in our home center and
had our families come through and see the docs. In total there
were 55 adults and 84 children who went through, 139 in total, and even
with a limited supply of medicine there were 285 prescriptions
written. However our success came at a cost. The American
team took a blow as Abbey and David A. made an early departure due to
upset stomachs. Now, both of them seem to be feeling better, but Goldi
is advising that they don’t eat any mole made from strangers. To
contrast our small setbacks with yet another victory, concrete was
poured into the wall at the construction site. It is nice knowing
that it will be held up by more than just blood sweat and tears…mostly
sweat. There is more dirt to be moved and more to be put up but
the sent of a new center that we can call our own is starting to waft
around in the air of La Laguna.
