TGIF

Friday already! We had another great week. Best part of my week? A new addiction in the form of a TV series called "24". (Not really, but Jack Bauer is the new McGyver if you ask me.) Best part of my day? Seeing Papa Lee! He's back to Helene and he's just as talkative as ever, which means he's feeling good. He told us he is in no pain, plus he's no longer critical, which is wonderful. His daughter told us he has bladder cancer, which is not good news. However, I'm so glad he's pain free and looking better. Also, he's spiritually ready to go home to Heaven at any moment - only God knows how much longer we'll get to have him here. We had another fun rainstorm today. Looking at the sky it was like night and day - fluffy white clouds right next to dark rain clouds over the gorgeous Caribbean Sea. In clinic, we got to see lots of people, notably, Liorlyn came in. We are almost 100 percent certain she has a DVT (Deep Vein Thrombosis) and are concerned about the clot migrating to the lungs to cause a PE. We gave her Aspirin 325mg/day and an injection of Lovenox (low molecular weight heparin). She's going off island tomorrow to get it checked out and further treated.

Major prayer for a meeting happening tonight with some of the community leaders regarding the future of the clinic. I shouldn't say much more than that.

That's all for now...we had a massive dance party here last night w/Brenda, Tisiana, Micheal, Jonathan (teenage islanders) and the team. Ewings is taking us on the Great Jungle Hike Adventure around the parameter of the island tomorrow! Oh, how I love this place!
