Today was a pretty typical day at the hospital. I went on rounds with Oppong today. The most interesting case was a young boy who came in yesterday with malaria three plus. He was having convulsions and coming in and out of consciousness. Today, he is doing much better. In the consultation room, an emergency came with a woman puking everywhere. She was puking bile and was admitted for gastroenteritis with severe dehydration.
Outside of work, I tried to watch the live feed of my little brother's graduation. Unfortunately, I missed majority of it because I was at work and the connection was not fast enough for the link to work. I am sorry Patrick! I am very proud of you and am sending my love from Ghana. This weekend is my last adventure. At first, Jen and I were going to head out to the Volta region to see some natural sites like the Wli Waterfall. I decided earlier today that it might be better to go to Accra because Jen wants to see a malaria exhibit at the museum and the exhibit leaves on Tuesday. Additionally, I need to buy a few more gifts for my family. Eric will be going into Accra to get another intern named Grace. We still have some time to decide, but I think Accra is the better choice.
I hope everyone enjoys their weekend. CONGRATULATIONS PATRICK!
