Sunday 11/30/14 Medical Camp

0700 came much too soon after that long and tiring couple of days. All of the medical volunteers were up for another social outreach/medical camp planned for us. We would be doing a free preventative and follow up clinics for the locals that included blood pressure, blood sugar, blood tests, weights, and education on hypertension, diabetes, and general health. Each person also met with a doctor to discuss their general well being and to receive additional, more specific education for their specific situation. All the locals were so nice and kind. Some were really hilarious and tried hard to speak and understand the English, it was sweet. There were also tons of kids that were running and playing around which was fun for me. After lunch we all crashed... for like three hours. It was the most glorious nap ever. After we met up for a relaxing movie night at my house :) woof, what a busy couple of days!!
