I hate Mondays

Today I went back to work after an exhausting weekend. I was hoping we could take the day off since today is an American holiday, but I decided that I should probably go to work. I went on rounds with Dr. Senya. The interesting case of the day was a retro patient who came in confused and aggressive over the weekend. We talked about HIV/AIDS on rounds. The diagnosis is a fungal infection of the brain. Oppong saw a record 91 patients today. Some Americans took a tour of the hospital, but I missed seeing them. I do not know what their affiliation is, but Dr. Senya made a joke about my kind being around. He also made a comment about how usually he is cautious of Americans because they "give one and take five." After work, I went to the office and got some work done. Angie, Douglas, and Eric entertain us in the evening with their Ghanaian jokes and laughter. The work continues tomorrow...
