Our team has the opportunity to go to Kenya for a week to get visas for Bangladesh and also to do health care teachings in Nairobi. There will be 5 of us going Bek, Rachel H., Emily, Jenny and myself. We found out on Saturday night we were going for sure and are stoked to be able to do some teachings there.
After I come back from Kenya, I will be in the Labour room for a week and hope to do 3-4 deliveries and that will be all our last week in the hospital . I’m sure we can all share the same sadness as a team in saying that we will miss the hospital staff a lot! I personally have learned so much from working with them and working with our own staff. I came to points where I thought I wasn’t going to make it through and some days the only thing that kept me going to the hospital was the relationships we had established there.
So I have a total of 3 weeks left…one in Kenya, one in the Labour room, and one week getting ready to leave for Bangladesh and also going to Zanzibar for a few days.
The last week we will go to Zanzibar for a few days as a team as a time of reflecting and resting on all that has happened in the past 6 months (I cant believe I’ve been here for half a year!) Zanzibar is a very beautiful island off of the coast of Tanzania with lots of culture and history.. It will be the last time till Australia that our team will be together since the team is going to 2 different locations (7 of us will be going to Bangladesh and 15 will be headed to India). I am really sad to split from my sisters...those I have cultivated relationships for the past 9 months but I am excited to go to Bangladesh for 2 months!
That is my schedule for the rest of my time in Africa!
my work in Tanzania is volunteer-based. Although my costs have been covered for the school, i am still in need for costs to be covered for my flight home. if you would like to contribute you can follow these instructions.. thankyou and God bless you!
