Medical Mission continues

November 18, 2011 by leslieclark Leave a Comment

Every day the midwife training continues in the morning with Dr. Bob, Aicha, and either me or Rachel and the clinic continues treating patients with Dr. Agak, Ali, Ramatu, with Louine and either Rachel or me at the pharmacy.

Patients waiting

Every day the patients increase. Word spreads fast in the nomadic territory.

The Soldiers guarding us were also very helpful organizing the entry of patients, who were on a first come first serve basis, unless an emergency arrived. We only had one of those during the trip. A severe malaria crisis who we put on an IV, stayed the night and was evacuated the next day to Arlit in much improved condition.

Treating the soldiers


The soldiers also took advantage of the opportunity to be treated for their medical problems.
