Shots for everyone....on the house
Today was the day of shots a la Henry Ford style. The two staff nurses are on both sides of a high stool and they stck you at the same time to expedite the process of administering shots to 150 adults and numerous children. We are split into two groups, and they move fast through them. Both days they have finished at least 30 minutes of their scheduled times.
Today, I received the first set of three shots to be adminstered over the next few weeks. The nurses' special for the day was rabies and the first round of Japanese Encephalitis. I still have the last two rounds of J.E., my tetanus booster, the third round of Twin Rex (Hep A & B simultaneously), another booster of polio, and another round of mumps / rubella.
Anyways, there are quite a few people with sore shoulders running around campus right now.
Yesterday, we were blessed to have an opportunity to talk with some J-man who are here on campus for debriefing. They shared their joys, blessings, and frustrations from the field. I learned so much from them in just 45 minutes. They are the current experts since they just came from where we are headed.
Have an amazing day!

In the beginning.....
...was a flight out of Will Rogers World Airport at 6 o'clock in the morning when the sun was nowhere near up or rising. Six hours later, we landed in Norfolk for a two hour bus ride. Since that fateful bus ride, I have made many friends who will be friends for life and have learned many things. I have further been blessed to live in a tri-quad with two families with three kids each and two fellow roomies. Thus, there are 7 adults and 6 kids (actually 6 and one on the way). The 6 kids provide ample amounts of free entertainment and enjoyment both in the quad and especially in the cafeteria. It is so fun to be around them.
In future posts, I will bring to light any comical and / or thought-provoking events and happenings. Also, interesting stories of the kids in my quad will be told!
