Day 5

The Euphrates at night.

Rammla.

Sajad. 9 months.

Dr. Rao doing an Echocardiogram on my patient.

Conference room at the hospital.

Baby Hussein and momma.

Rammla. One of my favorites.

Me with Rammla. You can see that she's pretty malnourished. It's not lack of food here, but lack of education. She's 18 months, but her mother is still breastfeeding her. Her mother's milk must have run out a while ago. We have been working hard with her to make sure Rammla gets the nutrition she needs. She will probably be a little delayed because of her weight.

Sajad. I spent most of my day at his bedside. He's pretty sick, but doing better.
