i visited a health center today and these are the results i found:
over 2,500 people in the community
8 nurses
1 social worker
1 doctor visit, once a month.
people walk almost 4 hours just to get to this health center!
there was one room that hosted sick patients; one room that mothers could give birth, 2 at a time, and four beds for post pardom (sp) mothers to rest! but one positive thing is that 85-90 percent of rwandans have health insurance!

There is no doubt that God has placed you where you are needed. Your language skills and compassion for the Rwandans will be a blessing, not just to the people you are serving and yourself, but you are also an inspiration to those of us who continue to pray for you. Stay safe and take comfort in the fact that you are in many hearts, minds and prayers.
