I'm very grateful for the medical care that we have in the United States!

Today we had the opportunity to visit the nicest hospital in Zambia. It wasn't very nice. It was really sad because as one of our team members put it the Nurses there were very well equipped for there job but they lacked the resources to do what they needed to do. We visited the preemie baby section and it was so hard to look at. The babies were so tiny and unlike the US they didn't have one nurse per baby, and they didn't have tons of supplies and machines to take care of them. It was very hard to see. Also, if any of the mother's wanted to visit their tiny babies they had to walk all the way from another building, after just giving birth. I was absolutely amazed by the strength of these mothers as I watched them stand for hours, just holding their babies hands. It made me so grateful for all of the resources that we have in the US. And it made me grateful for all of the Mom's in the world, especially mine! :) We were able to help out a little by bringing bags full of new born baby and birthing kits, thank you for all of your donations. You have no idea how much that will mean to a new mother and her little new born baby!
