Church on Sunday--via Michael Wayman from Norton
May 2. We went to the mission church today with our host family, Joel and April Hess. The experience was great and rewarding. A four-month-old was brought to the mission house today by its mother with complaint of vomiting, diarrhea, and decreased appetite. Dr. Crafton assessed the patient and we gave Pedialyte to the mother with instructions and asked her to bring the child to the clinic tomorrow. Also, an American lady from the orphanage broght a four-year-old boy to the house who had fallen and his right incisor was protruding parallel to the ground. We extracted the tooth intact and no bleeding occurred. Dr. Crafton gave oral care instructions to his caregiver and they were on their way. April, the clinic leader, informed us that these "house-call" events happen all the time. Not much else happened today. We are excited about the clinic tomorrow.
