Last day at the hospital

Today was my last day at the hospital, it came so quickly. I ended the journey where I started, by first participating in peds rounds. I learned about symptoms and how they can be connected to different diseases, mainly focusing on convulsions, fever, headache, cough, and vomiting. All symptoms that can be associated with malaria, epilepsy, meningitis, and other diseases. After rounds I went to the surgical theater where I saw a cesarean section and an abbcess removal. Both went very well, a healthy baby was born, and the little boy with the abbcess was treated. This was a great last day and an incredible three weeks. I am so thankful to have had this opportunity to participate in this type of program and I definitely learned a great deal about medicine and about Kenyan culture which is exactly what I was hoping for.
