Day 21

This would be Wednesday. It has been over a week since that day actually ocurred so I am drawing a blank. Oh gee. Ok so this would have been our first day doing checkups at the CDI. We did checkups for the children there. The situation has been such that during the days when the doctor can come, we have medicine that we can give out. Or, if not, she can write a prescription. However, she also has to be back at the hospital at like noon. So if we get there at 9:30 or so, by the time we get set up and getting everyone to go through, it's time to leave not long after. It's so hard because we already feel like we are so limited with our knowledge and resources.

We had a couple different things to bandage up, which was a first. We learned the hard way that "Ague oxígenada" is not only oxygenated water, but as we know it, Hydrogen Peroxide. Needless to say, the poor little boy who had his injured finger soaking in the peroxide was quite the trooper.

Nothing jumps out at me from the afternoon, except that we were pretty tired that day. In spite of it, we attempted to go see the 10PM showing of Hancock, because Tomás really wanted to see it. Normally Wednesdays are 2 for 1 but since it was a brand new movie, this wasn't the case. However, after getting to the theater, we found that it was sold out. Then we tried the other theater, which turned out to have tickets. (YaY!) However, upon walking into the theater, we learned that it was dubbed in Spanish. Seeing a movie dubbed in Spanish when you don't understand it is pretty silly. So we managed to get our money back and head home for the night. It was already 11ish anyway at the point so we were all tired and it worked out for the best.
