Anne, I will pass this blog to my doctor, who just got back from Peru where she spent three months at the tropical medicine clinic. She is learning Spaniosh with a view to working in south america some day. She will be interested in it. Maybe she would know someone who would want to voluntee now to teach the lab tests.
I could pass it along to the remate group, dr. bob'. too, if you have not sent it to them. I made myself up a group list befroe I had the pot luck. Yhry weill love to see the changes to the clinis and library, so bright with paint.
Almost 15 years ago, I decided to fulfill my dream of living in a place with palm trees and thatched huts with dirt floors, and I packed up the Toyota 4-Runner with my youngest son, Bryan (10 years old at the time), our dog, Bru and all our camping gear and left Calgary, Alberta for "someplace" in Guatemala. It didn't take long for us to discover this hidden paradise.
The day of our arrival in El Remate, I met Enrique, a doctor from Guatemala City, and we immediately realized that we both had the same idea for social development here in the village. Within a month we had opened the first free community clinic and the rest is history (see "Project Ix-canaan" and "another day in the jungle" links below).
