health care

So I don't have a lot of time, since people are waiting for the computer, but I was officially able to enjoy my first Belizian health care. Not so great...

I guess they don't really believe in wearing gloves when taking blood or being fully trained (as they were asking my community mate for help when putting in my IV).

But don't worry, everything is fine and dandy now! I am alive and kicking. I was able to spend the night in air conditioning, which is a GREAT change from the heat!

Other news, I am living with 6 others and sharing a bathroom with 3 other guys! This will be an interesting two years. I made them promise the keep the bathroom clean though, so no worries :)

Gotta go!

  1. Quick medical update for those of you following this blog... Allana had a bout with Kidney stones last Thursday night. While Morphine isn't an option in Belize, appararently they found something else (probably locally-grown) that put her in a happy place for awhile.
    It's really great as a parent to not have to worry about anything, because you find out about everything after the fact (sort of like when they're in high school).
    Allana- we're just happy you made it through week 1.
