Today at 9am (which really meant 10am) the entire hospital took a two hour break from work to celebrate the life of Dr. Oscar Danilo Rosales Arguello, for whom the hospital is named. El doctor was assasinated fighting for the Sandinista revolution again Somoza and today is the 45th anniversary of his death. There were lots of speeches about Dr. Rosales and some history about the war followed by about 30 minutes of songs supporting the current political party, the FSLN. While some of us go back to the wards, there is a large group of people going to visit his grave with snacks in hand. I didnt realize how many songs there could be supporting a political party. Are the Republicans singing songs today? I think they do it better in Nicaragua...
3 days until I´m home... hard to believe it.
