Magnificent!

I just got a text from the doc in Lobatse who has been treating the woman with NMS and she is up, walking around, wondering what the big deal is. What a sweet save! She owes her life to two students from Penn who were in the  right place at the right time while their preceptor was in the john bowing to his hyperplastic prostate. I made sure they knew. 

Next week I hit the road to the far west of the central nation, a primary hospital in Hukuntsi. I'll stay there a couple of nights then head east and join the road north to Ghanzi where there is a district hospital. I'll be there teaching and mentoring two nights as well. I hope to visit some outlying and remote clinics from there.

Then a long drive back home to Gabs and a lot of discussion to be had. Lynne is enjoying herself in the US and having a wonderful time with the various outlaws and in laws. We are indeed blessed to have all of them in our lives. Aven is term and "WANTS TO HAVE A BABY!" and who can blame her. It will be a hoot when "B" makes the scene.

Tomorrow I participate in the interviewing of candidates for Dean of the new medical school here. It is very protocolized and formal, we'll see how it goes. We need to get past some of the institutional inertia and get busy.

And we're two weeks into this two month adventure of Lynnes. I sure miss her and am glad she is spreading the "Mom joy" around the corners of the MLPs.
