Classroom without teacher


rs. After four hours of office work in the morning, I reached the hospital around noon. Askari said that the teacher was here, probably to discuss the issue with the meals of the schoolchildren (see yesterday's post). So I went to the school to meet him there, but when I arrived at the school the teacher was absent. I visited the children and took the opportunity to draw a small cat in one of the notebooks. :) Then I returned to the hospital. In the day-clinic we had a lot to do because we get more and more patients of the Lord Delemares Farm. As the nearby St. Mary's Hospital of the Catholic Church is quite expensive (a normal birth costs 10,000 KSh, in our hospital it's only 450) many come to our place.
