Pharmacist Failer

I'm in Phnom Penh for the week. One of our Khmer staff has debate at university and needed a hand. I'm the hand! I've been helping with medical clinics by day, and teaching her classes by night. I definitely have the clinic bug and am loving it! The last couple of morning I've hopped in a van with a few other Khmer at 6:30 a.m. headed out to villages. The clinic Saturday was in a church. I was instructed to take blood pressure, but failed at both hearing and seeing blood thumping. I refused the job and switched desks with the distributor of meds. The last 2 mornings I've stuck with the pharmacist position. I can even tell the patient how many pills how many times for what length of time in Khmer with them understanding! Yesterday we headed to a village built on the outskirts of clothing factories or otherwise known as sweat shops. It was quite interesting to see the large development of housing wound between and about the kilometers of factories outside of Phnom Penh. We even had a puppy infested with worms drop by for a pill!
