Monday, Wow what a day

we saw 132 patients yesterday at the clinic... started a little after 8 finished up after 6 it was crazy...most of the people were very appreciative of any little thing we could do for them.  I we had a few people who reminded us of you American patients, but for the most part it was an absolute joy.  what was really cool was to see the native kenyans doing much of the care giving. Dr Kingus and Doc both were excited to see things they've only seen in text books, but something that is a little frustrating is that some of the things we saw were very treatable in the US but here there is nothing we can do.  But as David, the ELI administrator reminded us, we do what we can, we can't help everyone.

Over all its been an exciting experience, I can't wait to see what we'll see today!
