More blankets and water tanks from UNICEF

rs. Today we had part 2 of the food distribution to the IDP's. I was helping at the food line and had to look that everything went smoothly. Often you have to tell them simple things like how to open their bags so that we can fill in the food. Suddenly I saw two children that didn't belong to our camp. They seem to have rubella. I quickly called our doctor to check them out because the outbreak of a new disease is the last thing we need now. Especially because we have so many children and pregnant mothers in the camp. Normally vaccinations are quite common in Kenya but if somebody grows up in the bushes, there is no control. Late afternoon we got a badly needed delivery of blankets from the UNICEF as well as bowls and small water-tanks with stands. It is nice to see that we - that means our hospital crew and the displaced people in the camp - grow together more and more like a big family. We are happy when they are happy and slowly they also start to show initiatives. One man for example asked us if he could have a tent to help children with school problems. As there are no tables and chairs in a tent we offered him the opportunity to use our waiting room in the evening. Let's see if they behave well.
