Rural Hospital


Walked over to the Makumbi Hospital, which is just out side the mission.  It is like space travel…back in time…like pre world war I.  They refer to nurses as sisters here in Africa, there were two on duty and there were 3 patients.
Outside there are about 4 TB huts for isolating patients.  Definitely DO NOT WANT TO GET SICK HERE!
Bro Ben was talking to a mother outside of church today she told him her 4 year old has blood in his urine.  Ben is a nurse here at Makumbi mission, he was trying to convince the mom to take her son to the hospital...SCARY!
Again it matters where on the planet you land in life.
 Above a ward...patients on other side of room...12 beds
 Ambulances???
 Open air facility
 TB huts, or isolation rooms
