Hey ya'll!!
Thank you all for your prayers! This past week has been awesome! I have learned so much and I feel like I have been here for sooo muh longer than a week. I feel so much more at peace about being here for 7 weeks. I found out hat there will be others joininvme after all the people I'm with now leave, which is an extreme blessing :) I have gotten alot closer to the people I'm living with now, which was an answer to prayer as well :)
Some of us got a chance to shadow a PT in town, I went today for the second time and I absolutely loved it! The PT was an amazing teacher, even though he spoke in Spanish lol it's been such a blessing though because Spanish medical terminology is really similar to English so it's alot easier to understand. I can follow what he's talking about and he's very patient about what I don't understand. It's been great and it's somewhere I'll hopefully get to go to frequently.
I got to see a surgery on Monday! A guy came in after he had some kind of accident in which he completely broke both of his shins! The doctor put a bar in one leg and a plate in another.... Prolly way to much information for you all but I loved it lol I've gotten to shadow other doctors as well whih were all interesting but they were harder to understand. Last night was my first night on ER duty. We stayed at the hospital till 5:30,.... so it was a great bondig experiance with two of the girls. Sooo has of right now I'm running on 3 hours of sleep.
Thank you all for your continued prayers! I miss you all, but no worries, I'm loving my time here while it lasts :)
Things to pray for:
-health. I have a cold right now (I think because of the 20degree weather at night...). But also for my friends here, two of them are having stomach pains, and they're not sure why.
-continued understanding of Spanish
-to be a blessing (I have made friends with the house cook, Tia, looovvee her) both to the people here and the volunteers I'm living with
-the wi-fi keeps failing, makes it difficult to keep in touch
Love you all! Post again soon
Oh! And I talked to my coordinator and it looks like I will be spending the night inthe airport as of right now, bt I'm feeling alot morepeace about it. Thanks forall the prayers!
ReplyDeleteSee I told you you could handle staying up all night, but I do have to give you props because I could never make it through a surgery let alone say it was awesome afterwards :) God has got you exactly where He wants you and I will be praying that he continues to grow you over the next few weeks. Miss ya
