Wednesday evening...buenos! Another very busy, but very productive, day of training at the clinic. Jen and I both have been so impressed by how well this group is doing. They're motivated, eager and intelligent, and so appreciative of our time with them. Most of our day was spent with hands on scanning time, with a couple of short pathology lectures. Tomorrow morning, Jen and I will be picked up at 5:50am, and we will drive to the Culmi clinic. Culmi is one of Predisan's remote public health clinics in a neighboring county. Half of the group we've been training work in Culmi, so they will be joining us for a day of training and scanning patients. After we finished for the day, Laura took us to the Agricultural College in Catacamas, for a walk around the fields and farms. Thousands of students attend the college and either use their education and skills to continue in family farming or work in the agriculture industry. The grounds are lovely, with fields of corn and beans, mango, cocoa and plantain orchards, and pasture for cattle, with huge, beautiful trees. We then headed back in to town for ice cream and pupusas for dinner. 5am will come early tomorrow, so I'm going to turn in early tonight. Hasta Manana!
