Hi All,
I am coming down to the last few days at my placement. I finish working at the hospital on Wednesday & then begin climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro on Thursday. It will take me 6 days to climb (4 days up & 2 days down) so I will be out of touch with everyone until I return.
I can't believe I have less than two weeks left, time has flown by. I think leaving will be bittersweet, happy to be home but sad to leave.
I have now been to 2 of the nurses house for a meal. They are very hospitable; you go to their house, they make you food, & then they give you a gift: kind of the opposite from home. Their houses were quite nice, but very different from one another. Though they both tell me they are very poor & they don't have much they are willing to give me the world. The people are what I will miss the most.
Just wanted to touch base before I leave for the mountain. I love & miss you all & thank you for keeping up with our blog.
