Wednesday November 3rd
My language acquisition is very slow. Bokonjo is a difficult language which leaves non linguists like me with little hope! I’m still getting my Wabacheery (hello) and Wasinge (thankyou) muddled up which seems to cause considerable amusement. Some words have elements of Kiswahili in them but most is very different. There is a language book that has been produced by the American Peace Corps for their volunteers but I have yet to see a copy.
The wards have been busy. A rather discouraging day with 4 deaths none of which could be prevented but I did feel so sad for the grieving families.
There are 2 small friends pictured below who seem to frequent the area around the operating theatre building (outside it!) I know David will apprecite these!
