Our makeshift pharmacy at Laguna. The same structure was usually used for illegal gambling according to the locals.
It's a difficult job to sort through all the medicines we bring with us and even more difficult to make sure our patients understand the dosages and importance of taking what was prescribed.
This was right after the rainstorm that Joe described. The sun (and heat) returned in no time at all.
Here's the scene after a long day in the clinic. Every day has sent us limping back to the jeepney tired and sweaty for the long bumpy ride home. While it isn't the most comfortable ride in the world, it's probably among the nicest of all the jeepneys simply because it has air conditioning.

Dear Mike,
ReplyDeleteIt is wonderful to have more pictures--and words, too!
I'm glad everyone is writing. I've been logging on to this about every time I walk by the computer! I know you have very little time for yourselves.
Your writings are all wonderful. Keep it up and
stay safe
Love, Ruth
