It's been a while

It's about time I came out with a new post, and not let Henrik do all the work, so here it is:
- The birds at Haydom have pretty colors
- On monday Henrik and I will be changing wards, so I'm going back to surgical 2, and Henrik goes to Lena ward.
- After four weeks at the children's ward I feel ready to go somewhere else. I love working with the children! But it has been very challenging. Communication has been one of the main problems, most of the children only speak tribal languages, and some of them didn't have anyone to translate, so body language is the only way to communicate. The challenge at lena ward as well is the lack of guidance... 

- We had Lena party on Friday, bananas, candy, bubbles, swahili movie and jumping rope for all the children and their families! 

- One of the children were sitting on Henrik's lap and peed all over his pants, hahaha!





 - After sala, morning devotion, we go to the x-ray-meeting. Where we go through all the x-rays and CTs taken the previous day. We get to see quite a few interesting fractures!
