Aram's Health Hut is not quite open yet but the village is rocking with some health calls. Sarah and Madeline came to Aram and we painted 4 beautiful murals, one is to the left. Reading: Breastfeed only until 6 months.
I'm the guilty one for the running paint below the picture.
To the right is our ASC (head health hut nurse) checking people's tickets during the bed net distribution. It went much smoother than we thought, especially after I had a bit of a rant to create some order-- it worked! It was beautiful once things got flowing and the ASC did an AMAZING job of explaining to people the process of the bed net distribution, how to care for your bed nets and if people were rude to him, he had back up. We made a good team. The day after the bed net distribution, the President of the NGO Net Works came to Madina Ndiathbe, she was going on tourney to check out various distributions. It was pleasant meeting her, and the ICP in Madina really went all out for her arrival.
After the Net Works President left, I retired back to Amber's house, exhausted, and in need of some quiet time before I had to go get on a bus to take me to Dakar for my meeting Saturday afternoon. I made it into Dakar at 7am with little sleep, and got to hang out with good people! Went to my meeting Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning, just to leave to go back up North Sunday afternoon. It was a fast trip, not much relaxing but it feels nice being busy again.
