Thursday July 7th
Today was a last working day. The morning continued until 1.45pm but this afternoon Ive done a case based discussion with Rachel for her GP training so this afternoon wasn’t quite so intense. Ann spent some of the morning doing a rerun of Jonah and the Big Fish to 600 children at Kasinga Primary School about a mile away. This afternoon we were able to enjoy a last walk along one of the local tracks though banana and millet plantations.
Reflecting on our time what have we achieved? I hope we have been able to contribute something to the life of the local school and hospital. It’s certainly been a very intense 2 weeks but we are pleased to have been here and certainly we have learnt a lot about appreciating what we have in the UK and take so much for granted. Particularly the locals are always so grateful for the rain so we need to make sure we don’t grumble on a cold wet day in the UK! We are looking forward to apples, a long hot bath and some clean towels!!
Fortunately there hasnt been any Ebola virus otherwise we might have been stuck here for several weeks as all movemnts are stopped!
And goodbye to Bertie who lives in the corridor of the guesthouse
