photos - various - part 5

There are only a limited amount of patients the doctor can see and they come from all over as the head of the orthopedic department is an American. We brought them to the hospital at 5:00am so they could get accepted as a patient to be seen that day.
At the end of the day Mirline Noel and her mother came back to the house with a cast on her left leg.
Roodmai Pierre had a cast on his leg as well. Both parents have a return appointment after 2 weeks.
The hydrocephalus surgeries are being held and we have been busy preparing and bringing food to the hospital as well as hosting some of the mothers here at Coram Deo. This is the view of the pediatrics building at the Bernard Mevs/Project Medishare Hospital.
Different NGO organizations provide funding and material so that the hospital can provide services to the community. Among the NGO's are the American Red Cross, Food For The Poor, Gheskio and Project Medishare. A lot of people are knocking down the NGO's but these NGO's are doing a lot of work here in Haiti.
