Kenyans are tough people. Most of the procedures are done here without general anesthetic, which means spinals, local and monitored anesthesia care are the mainstays. We have got to do some incredible pain revealing procedures which brings great joy to both patient and medical staff.
Sleeping under a mosquito net is painful for me, but I know that it is a good thing. Another great thing about Tenwek is that the high altitude means a very low chance for malaria!
Hope all is well in the states. I really pray to sleep well tonight as I will be taking call this weekend. Also praying there are not too many machete wounds to fix.
