Happening Now Yearly Medical Trip
More than 40 people attended this year's medical trip to Guibert and Drouin, where close to 3000 people were seen in two weeks. Our first week's clinic was held in Guibert, where we've been holding clinics for years. While most of our team worked seeing patients, a group of three helped to paint the new kitchen and dining room being built onto the boy's orphanage. This is going to be a wonderful space for the boys where they can not only eat, but also do homework and gather to relax.
On Saturday, January 28th, we made a switch. Those who attended the first week's clinic flew home and the second week's attendees arrived. The second week's clinic was in Drouin, a small village about an hour north of St. Mark. This was our first clinic in Drouin, an area so remote that many had never seen white people before. We were fortunate enough to be able to use a clinic that the government built and rarely staffs for our clinic days. This got us out of the extreme heat and offered us a sterile environment to perform surgeries and see patients.
The need in Drouin is great. Malnourishment was rampant and dehydration was the norm. We started the long process of teaching our patients that they need to be eating more than rice and drinking as much clean water as possible. We look forward to going to Drouin again next year.
