San Martin

We went to the village of San Martin today where we set up clinic in the Iglesia Cristiana Evangelica Mision Victoria.  We saw a total of 42 medical patients, adults and children.  Randy saw 6 physical therapy patients.  Jazmine and I break away to interview this 82 y.o. Chatino lady and her daughter about diabetes.  We had the interview in the kitchen which a separate single building beside the house.  The lady and her three daughters share the kitchen.  There is a wood fire inside, a corn tortilla stone and the ladies were making fresh tortilla.  They were very simple people but super nice.  The pastor’s wife made us chicken soup, the chayote was delicious.  This was a hot and tiring day for me.  Did a few consults with Laura interpreting for me. 

Once back in Cacalote, Laura and I conducted two more diabetes interviews at the clients’ homes. 

After dinner we went into el pueblo for snacks at the green shop.  We stop at a restaurant, greeted by a nice man who made us mango smoothie, a coconut,  and a bocadilla 

Today was very well spent, our team provided care to 42 clients!
