New Things

Well this week has been a lot of fun, and I have learned and done a lot of new things. I have not fainted any more. I have seen another c section and a hernia. Today was a clinic day and I was in a room with Doctor Dickens and one of the med students, we had a lot of people come in with malaria which is very common around here, I now know the symptoms very well. Doctor Dickens had left to go do some ultra sounds and I stayed with the med student, we had a patient come in who was 4 months pregnant. The med student wanted to check the babies heart beat and asked me if I had ever done it before, I said no and he explained how to do it and then let me try. I found the babies heart beat pretty easily, it was very fun. I have been having a lot of fun learning and getting to see so much new stuff, it has kept me very busy. I can't wait to see what the weekend and next week hold for me!!

    Way cool, although, we knew you could do that. Remember when Carole left her doppler after the first time I thought I was in labor and you and Jenny checked the boys 3 times a day. Love you, have a great weekend. Pics???
