Team Rehab Day 8

On our last day at the hospital Team Rehab spent time saying goodbye to the patients and translators we had gotten to know during the week. We also found out at the woman with the gunshot wound had passed away earlier that morning. She serves as countless example of how fortunate we are to have quality healthcare in the United States. We are so blessed! Team Rehab took a few minutes for souvenir shopping before packing up the Land Cruiser and discharging Beneswa to bring back to Les Ceyes. Marvin let us know that there was a line of patients waiting for us at the clinic since 8 am. In Les Ceyes the team split up again and June and Greg worked on admitting Beneswa to the local hospital and paying a home visit to Pierre. Team Revive will be pleased to know that he has followed their recommendations and has cleaned his room and the wounds on his feet are healing. Sarah, Ali D, and Allie spent the afternoon evaluating and treating 17 patients at the new clinic with the assistance of Marie, Kowki, Marvin, and Carmen for translation. Many of the patients were getting a name for their condition for the very first time. In the evening we spent one last time with June in her apartment in Les Ceyes. June also joined us for our final  dinner at SEED. The entire team was excited to have another delicious meal prepared by the SEED cook, Denise. We were all sad to start packing our belongings to prepare for our journey back to theUnited States.
