Team Renew- Day 7

We started out our last full day at Hospital Lumiere the same as yesterday, with breakfast and devotional, followed by treating patients bedside. We were surprised by June bursting in to the hospital in Haitian surgical gear, telling us to hurry if we want to observe an above knee amputation. The young, brave gentleman who rode with us to Bonne Fin had a congenital deformity resulting in a smaller, non-functional left leg. Although he impressively maneuvered using only a long stick, he would have a more functional gait with a prosthetic device. We all discovered that surgical conditions are very different in Haiti, but I'm sure he felt more comfortable with Dr. Belding operating, who is our surgeon housemate with an infection rate of zero. After wrapping up the observation, we finished seeing our patients with enough time to check out some more amazing scenery. We will be heading out to the water reservoir, where they apparently have beautiful waterfalls. We'll fill you in the on the details tomorrow :)
