Wrapped it up today and we think the nurses will do great with the ultrasound systems in the rural clinics. The Malians are such gracious people. It's been so great to return... and they want us to come back.
Remember I said there were 8 babies born in 48hrs?Well, I was wrong. It was in about 14 hours! Needless to say, they were busy. Today, the lady with the large right ovarian mass came in for surgery. The cyst (benign) turned out to be 43 lbs (20 kg) and was intact. I'll spare you all the photos on this, but I must admit they're very interesting. Fascinating!
It was Thursday market again, so of course, very busy in town. We always plan on 'driving around' to get to the hospital. That's because the main road is filled with vendors and commercial activity. Anna, Kay and I headed into the market - ready for more mayhem.
Off to Bamako to catch our return flights. Will have lunch and market time in Segou (on the river Niger) and then drop our luggage off at Air France. Flight at 11:30pm... I'll catch up soon...
