For my final days in Nicaragua I am running around trying to fulfill the wishes of the amazing people Ive worked with at the hospital. The head of nursing for pediatrics gave me a wishlist, which I was able to fulfill using money graciously donated by an anonymous donor and a member of one of the church brigades. So far I was asked for
- An electric double burner to boil water (This purchase has answer my mother´s constant question "How do you have a hospital if there is no hot water?!")
- Pots to boil said water
- Standing fans to keep the patients cool
- Pitchers of water to store boiled water
The residents will give me a list this afternoon. I am amazed at the simplicity of these requests and so happy to be able to provide these small conveniences.
