That title obviously didn't work

Ok, let's try this again
Thursday am with French toast for bkfst....

Clinic had a somewhat happy ending . the kid who I thought had Diabetes the other day came back to see me with some lab results that he had had done. We couldn't contact him past 2 days because cell # didn't work.His labs showed a blood sugar of 571 with normal electrolytes and no numbers consistent with dehydration. We referred him again to the hospital. The family has no cash and will have to sell their belongings to get him in. Basically people have to pay for hospitalization up front here. If they need IVs and fluid and meds and INSULIN they have to buy it and bring it to the hospital. Fortunately at home The services of social workers are available to help out with this issue but here-NO SUCH THING - as a social worker

I thought of asking the older brother to go out and steal someone's cow and sell it
but that plan might backfire, ssssssooooooo any suggestions from you guys!!!!!

Just kidding but this is how Haiti works. No health insurance or entitlement programs here so we should all consider ourselves fairly lucky DUDES-REALLY.

Went to town this P.M. with some other volunteers and a driver to get some parts to fix a tractor. That was fun. Les Cayes was bustling today. Lots of folks out and about

Still no news about the ship but haven't talked with Father Marc this P.M., yet

See you later.....jerry
