David and Goliath

Wednesday 29th June
Today has been a busy one at the hospital with many sick patients on male ward. In particular there are a number of patients with cardiac failure and a boy in his teen who is failing to respond to his TB treatment and on whom we haven’t been able to get a CXR done because of difficulties over the power supply which has been very erratic. I’ll post some xrays I’ve copied for the interest of the medically inclined!
Ive had an opportunity to discuss the guideline for abdominal pain with fever which needs tweaking but everyone seems very enthusiastic.
Ann taught about David and Goliath. She used a long stick with a balloon on to represent Goliath and the children were highly amused when he fell down and the balloon burst! This afternoon she went to another nearby school where she heard a recorder recital including Joy to the World and the local Bokonzo anthem.
