Dr. Skankey instructing Aicha
I have been involved with the responsibility for the health and well being of thousands in different parts of the world, have done complex surgery that has relieved suffering and saved lives, but I think that what we did this trip to train midwives who will themselves then save many mothers and babies lives for years to come giving supportive care in humble Tuareg tents or out in the open in the middle of the Sahara desert far out shines anything I have been involved with before. The word is sustainability.
