Update Day 3 Limbe

Hi everyone,
We made it safely to Cap yesterday afternoon. The flight was surprising very smooth and very beautiful. WE stopped at Exumel, a Caribbean island to gas up. On the way up, I was enjoying God's beauty, the green blue oceans and islets of land, uninhabited but full of life. I was thinking now would be a good time to vacation! haha, just kidding. We have much work to do. We are staying at Limbe University, an hour away from Cap Haitian. Pastor Bob welcomed us with a warm smile and we dropped off luggage, then on our way! We went to one project to see kids for half a day, actually only 2 hours. We got a lot done. We saw 90 projects kids in about 3 hours. Unfortunately we were out on the road at night, but were happy to service the whole community. The flow was a little chaotic, but we got everything done. The focus of this trip is very different than the last. WE decided to split into 3 stations this time, focusing primarily on nutritional assessment (height,wt) and malnutrition score which indicates whether the kids need Medika Mamba, a high calorie supplement. Our dietician input everything to out database to follow up with. After inital assessment the kids move to medical. That's me! We do a basic head to toe assessment and basically look at immediate needs. Determine if the kid has cholera, infections, abscess, dehydration, worms, fungal infections...And prescribe accordingly. The focus of this trip is not medical so we are treating only severe case. The fortunate thing is most the kids we saw looked well!! This was encouraging to see that the kids that are being sponsored are being well taken care of. This time I'm just looking at kids, not the family members and non sponsored kids. What a relief!! I know kids! I'm working with a really nice Peds ICU doc and a few other nurses. Its a good team so far. The third station is pharmacy where they pick up their meds--everyone gets a multivitamin and worm pill. The cool part of this team is the education. WE have a few people designated to teaching cholera prevention and treatment--infection control, clean drinking water and bathing. I love this part, because we are giving the people a chance to be proactive in their care and treatment. I think its been pretty effective so far. WEll, I have a friend waiting for me so I better go. We are moving to hotel tomorrow. Turns out 10 girls and one bathroom isn't going over well. But the home cooked food is great! There is internet there but its very spotty. Hopefully be able to post a quick blog. Thank you for prayers. I would like specifically prayer for a humble heart and for the Lord to speak to me, show me where He wants to use me, and for patience with this.
Thanks! God bless
