Leaving Nicaragua
Finally our internet is back working. Poor Luz spent hours last night trying to post pictures without any luck. Today is our last day in Nicaragua and it has been a great and busy first week. Today one of the pediatricians came up to me to let me know specifically what a great job that Luz has done when working with him. He said beyond seeing more patients that most of the other providers, she spent more time doing education with them than others and was the first provider he has seen who walks their patients to pharmacy, etc. The other providers have had similar comments about Kim and Nicole. Okay, as for the other stuff. Wish we had a picture getting off the transport boat on Friday. Many people got sick on the short ride and then the actual getting off was pretty scary. They have had to cancel functions because of the danger involved in being transported to and from land. The food, well what can I say. Luz has a great picture I hope she can post soon.

Dr Roark, or should I say Randy for the sake of the mission. You commented on education and how Luz is doing a good job at it. I am very happy for that which is of course very important. I am curious however, in terms of the education provided, how different and how much adjustment must be done in order for the education material to be easily executed by the recipients? As students in Miami we are usually only familiar with modern technology and not rural area such as where you all are.
