Guatemala Day #3

Today we saw 140 patients today.  We were all pretty busy all day.  Jon was able to put some of his schooling to work today on a patient.  They had one boy pass out in the dental chair and Jon had to go and help him.  He ended up putting an IV in him and watching him for awhile.

The Stake Center we are working in

This little boy came with his Grandpa today with a group of missionaries.  He had lots of pictures taken and got lots of candy and toys from all of us.


This a couple from our ward in Logan Daren & Emily Gehring
Brianna's first set of perfect x-rays!

This is the sterilization area.  My cousin Bubba is here with us.  (far left in scrubs)



This is Jon with Rachel the girl he works with in the recovery area and the interpreters.



These cute little kids came to the clinic today and I took them to the humanitarian room and got them a few toys and candy to take home with them.  They each chose a stuffed animal.

This is the waiting area out front of the church.  The kids wait here and fill out all their mission papers.


This is one group that came by bus to have all their work done

These boys are waiting to be checked in.  The boy on the left did not want to get his haircut! Below is a video of the cultural hall where they have all the dental chairs set up for the dentists.

Thanks for including a picture of Bubba. I would love to be around those cue kids. Looks like a fun and busy day.

Love your blog and love that you guys are doing this!! What a great experience. We are headed to Peru in a couple of weeks for a service opp and I can only hope our experience is as neat. I am nervous!
