Day 5--Friday, March 27--Tegucigalpa

On our final clinic day we travelled to the capital of Honduras, Tegucigalpa, and took over the clinic associated with the police department.



This was by far the nicest place we set up shop... we had actual exam rooms complete with air conditioning and even a bathroom. Unfortuately, it was the only working commode so we had people trooping through our exam room to use it. This time I was partnered with Peter. It was a relatively small room, so by the time you had Peter and me, both of our interpreters, the ear guys, Eric & Vincent, and Cassie plus a few families of patients... it was crowded.

Interacting with our patients:

Melody attracts the young ones.




Peter and Vicent are captivated.


Ian and a young family. Thank goodness for Ian, his spanish was a great benefit.

At the end of the day we emptied our bags and donated the supplies to the clinic. They were so thankful. State run hospitals and clinics suffer from a derth of supplies and equipment.

Can't wait 'til next year!
