Uganda 2007



Every place that I travel to leaves me speechless in it's beauty and Uganda was one of the most beautiful!!! The people and the country. I had the great privilege to travel to Uganda for one week with Operation Renewed Hope and had a wonderful time in service. The team consisted of 28 people that included two medical doctors, two dentists, one eye doctor, seven nurses and 16 fabulous volunteers. We worked in three villages, in four days and saw over 1000 people. We also were able to see over 450 new souls!!!

It was a fabulous time getting together with some old friends and a great time working with the kids! I was able to work with all of the kids for the entire week. Kinda worked like a doctor, but with much doctor assistance. I loved it!! Has made me consider going back to school for my NP license! Who da thunk it??????

Dear Friends and Family, I arrived back in Shanghai on Tuesday, August 28th. On Wednesday morning we were already up early to go to the supermarket to get groceries and to help the new ones get settled in. We have four new people joining us this year. Three of those are guys and yes, the other is a girl!! We have two new English teachers, one nursing teacher and one science teacher. The team is now about even in the ratio of girls to guys now!! The boys are happy! My first class day was Monday, September 3rd. I am teaching Maternity this semester and have the same students that I had the first semester.

Check-off is the time where we teach them skills and they have to demonstrate them back to us for a grade. We will have check-off for Maternity, Medical/Surgical Nursing, and Fundamentals of Nu...

Dear friends, Wow, it has been a long time since I posted. I always have such grand ideas of doing great journaling here and I always fall quite a bit short of that...and today will be the same. I don't have a lot of time to write, but wanted to let you know that I have changed the place that I am posting pictures. I have been using Facebook and have found it easier to post pics there. So, my pics are now at www.facebook.com . You do have to sign in to this site, but after you do, you can search for my name and view my pics and other info about me. At some point I may even blog there, but for now I will continue to try to keep you a little updated here.
