I had a pleasant journey back to Douala after spending time
back in the US. I arrived at 6:00 p.m.
and had an overnight rest at a hotel arranged by Sr Alphonsa because Padre Pio was
full of guests on Saturday. The
following day I attended the Sunday Mass and by 9:00 a.m. boarded the mini bus
for our trip to Shisong. I was with an Italian medical mission of ten, nurses,
MDs and technicians and it took us 9 hrs of travel – arriving at 7:00 p.m.
The next day I started work at 7:00 a.m. in ICU. It was a
busy day and everyday I did not have a chance to take lunch. I was OK - I had to eat lunch at 3PM and then still do
my walking exercise. I had to adjust with everything such as work, house
situation etc.
I witnessed wonderful humanitarian people and the main
person is Dr Matthias Agren a German Pediatric Cardiologist who just finished
his medical mission in Romania and flew directly to Cameroon to join the
Italian mission. He is the CEO of Robin Foundation. He is truly a one of a kind
specialist. I am blessed to have worked
with him.
We just ended our mission cardiac surgery yesterday. I am looking
forward to the next mission in January 2017. I am very satisfied with what I
went through.
