A typically unique day
Celso was back today, yay; he was actually at a funeral for the past two days. We caught him up to where we were work-related and also our amazing weekend. Then we continued on with our noisy nebulizers and returned all the machines that we fixed thus far. We also turned in our baby lamp to the emergency room. They were pretty receptive and we took another one of their broken ones to fix up. We were pretty darn speedy and finished everything by lunch time. Then we hit up our regular Stephen’s house and later fetched for some missing parts for our machines. We are definitely pretty lucky in the sense that such a small town has around 3 repair/spare parts shops within walking distance.
Later in the afternoon we worked some more then went for a swim at Christopher Columbus. Met some more guys from the medical brigades; this time they were from the government/army and were just here to observe how the Honduras are putting our American tax dollars to good use. Glad to know that the US government does so many underground charity work and doesn’t boast or ask for acknowledgment (well at least it doesn’t seem like it). We’ll be seeing these guys tomorrow and a very special guest!! I am definitely excited to see this person, hopefully he shows up.
Ended the day with a session of lily folding and a pretty exciting dinner of nachos but with banana chips. Elda sure likes her bananas. She is also such a nurse at heart. I was having a pretty bad case of the heat rash and she came in with a huge bottle of baby powder and rubbed it all over me. Now she has nursed both of us once. Momma Elda is seriously growing on me day by day. Her and Momma Brenda from Costa Rica are so different in their motherly ways and yet when it comes down to it, they both are equally full of love. I am determined to take to heart the good qualities of both of them and potentially use them one day on my kids tehe.
