another tuesday

So, in few minutes I'm off through the river and through the woods to one of the satellite nutrition programs with Stephanie and hopefully it doesn't rain again, but what is there to do? Nothing. 

I hope to write more soon about yesterday.  It was quite an experience, my first with death here really.  The in charge clinical officer at the Health Center lost his 7yo son yesterday morning to heart failure as a result of Sickle Cell.  It was really interesting being conscious of my own cultural expectations/norms about death and grieving, and trying to be open to/figure out a new set of expectations/norms.
