Wednesday, day 4!

The first day at the new clinic in Politilly. The team started the day early with breakfast at 6:30am but then had to wait till about 7:25am to leave - the roads next to the hotel are closed to traffic for 25 minutes in the morning while school is letting in. During a quick st...

Tuesday morning, September 24, began with the realization we had lost our beloved teammate Carol Brittsan. She had passed peacefully in her sleep, safe in her bed resting after such a wonderful day serving the Roatán community. Heavy hearts spread rampant as we learned the news.

It takes a village!
