12/5/11 Today was the second day of surgery. There were 26 surgeries today. The youngest patient today was 14 months old. He weighed 10 kilograms. SMS students - tell me how many pounds that is when you read this on Monday. The 14 month old baby had cleft lip surgery. The oldest patient today was a 24-year-old man, and he had a unilateral cleft lip.
Tomorrow we are going to visit an orphanage in the morning and it is named SOS Orphanage in Amman. SMS students try and look it up on the internet. After we go to the orphanage, we will go back to the hospital and make arm boards for surgery. The arm board prevents a child from bending their arm and touching their face where they had surgery. The armboard also steadies the arm for the IV. Well, going to go to bed now. I will tell you all about the orphanage tomorrow.
Carrie - how are my dogs?
