We've been pretty busy the past few days revisiting the villages where we had originally interviewed the caregivers that came to our retreat. While we were out there, we led informational sessions on HIV/AIDS using as many activities, demonstrations, and games that we could come up with. It was all pretty fun, especially getting to ride in the bed of the pickup truck as we drove over dirt paths carved into the sides of the mountains.
And how did we spend our day off? Well, for starters, we watched seven episodes of Nip/Tuck. Yes, you read that correctly. I brought the first three seasons with me, and we have gone through all of them during the three weeks we have spent in Lesotho.
At least we were somewhat productive today. I started arranging a Beatles medley for the Arrhythmics to do in the fall, and we managed to walk to the hospital to work out arrangements for us to shadow next Tuesday. Marion and Jillian will be following our friend Thakane, who is a labor and delivery nurse, while Liza and I will be working with the doctor. I say "the doctor" because only one doctor works at the entire hospital each day. This should be an interesting experience...
