Today was my second to last day in the clinic. I started the morning dressing wounds with one of the nurses. Afterwards, I took patients with Oppong. There was an interesting case regarding a possible sickle cell disease patient. She has a twin sister who is ss, but she tested negative. Oppong says that her features are characteristic of sickle patients and he does not believe that she is negative.This girl has an enlarged spleen and Oppong originally thought it was a result of her sickle cell disease. Oppong gave me some videos for Azonto. I think I have to practice tonight so I can impress everyone tomorrow.
Tonight is the last meal Angie is going to prepare for me. She told me she is going to make red-red, my favorite. I promised her a few weeks ago that I would make something American for the last night. I know that spaghetti is technically not "American," but it is really easy to prepare considering the kitchen I will be cooking in.
I finally have some pictures from work. I hope you enjoy! Also, HAPPY 30TH BIRTHDAY MOM! (You get 20 years off for good behavior.) I am really excited to go home very soon, but I am sad that I am going to be leaving some great people. I have made numerous friends here and it is going to be hard to say goodbye to them
