May madness

Back into work at Kalene after a 4 week holiday, it's been busy!

Last week Friday I went on a rural health centre visit.


The road there, and a mother with child standing in front of the health centre.


Please step into my office... the consulting room. Frustratingly, the clinic was out of stock of almost everything helpful, which made my job difficult!


Kids outside

Sachibondu

On my way back from Lusaka by road, I stopped at Sachibondu bible school for 4 days to spend time with Ruth Wallis and see the rural health clinic that she runs.

Ruth has worked in Zambia for more than 40 years, an inspiration!


Sachibondu is stationed beside a small lake and has a lovely community feel to it. I enjoyed my time there.

That holiday I had...

Seems long ago already! I spent a lovely 3 weeks in South Africa doing very little, which was just as I planned!


Climbed Table Mountain twice

Made the top by sunset and spent the night

Enjoyed the beach, and some trick photography

A happy ending


Zwao, a 2 year old on his day of discharge after 9 months in hospital, 2 major operations, and 13 rounds of chemotherapy.
