sanyati baptist hospital continues to serve hundreds of patients each day, even with chronic shortages of water, electricity and essential medicine. with the economic crisis in zimbabwe, the bush hospital lacks even basic supplies like mattresses and ceilings.
the week i was there, a shipment of medicines from baptist global response arrived. these medicines have allowed the hospital to continue treating patients, even when the rest of the country has shut down.
baptist global response hopes to complete a renovation of the facility in the near future.

a man gets his vitals checked before he sees the doctor. one doctor provides care for hundreds of clinic patients each day, as well inpatient care.(i dont have my notebook. i'll (maybe) update the captions with names later.)
In attempts to reunite, all I have to say is that I love you and that I don't love facebook anymore....oh and that I love you.
