Busy day with many patients

We had a busy day. Many people felt the change of weather, especially older people. In the clinic patients are lying with high blood pressure, a woman with a severe bronchitis and a small girl with respiratory problems. We also have a mother who wanted to deliver her baby, but on the 8-hour walk (!) to our hospital the baby come too early and didn't survive. We often have to witness that the mothers don't realize early enough to go to the hospital. We also have many patients with colds which is no surprise when you know that in the mountains on 2000 m and over, the temperature easily can go down to 10 °C during the night. The houses have no heating system and the people have not enough warm clothes. Many walk around barefoot, even when it is raining. They have simply no money to buy shoes and warm clothes. I am hoping for better weather conditions too - I really prefer warm temperatures. - Mama Matata
