Summary of Day 4 (Monday)

Summary of today (Monday):

The Village Medical Team saw about 150 patients in Copper Bank.
The Screen Team installed screens in 15 homes in Copper Bank. They also repaired a number of tables and chairs for the elementary school.
The Construction team installed interior partition walls in the third house. They also installed exteriors doors in the second and third houses. While awaiting materials, they spent a good bit of time playing with the children in the San Victor community.

The Surgical Team has not returned yet from the hospital. I'll update this post when we get a final report of their day.

And an update on the number of patients seen yesterday by the Village Medical Team while in Progresso. They didn't return last night until about 8pm last night. They saw over 250 patients. One 2-month old girl who was very non-responsive was rushed to the hospital in Orange Walk and later transported to the hospital in Belize City. Her breathing was very faint and her heart rate very low. We hope to get an update on her in the next day or two.

Hello Horizon team!
Loved looking at your blog tonight and seeing all the photos. Looks like you have quite a team assembled and I saw some faces from last year...Nancy, Joe, Doug, and many more. We are praying for the Santoya family and asking God to give us direction as to how best to help them when we arrive later this week. Sounds like you have bee very busy seeing lots of people at village medical and performing many surgeries. God bless each of you as you complete His work this week! Fondly, Susan Phillips

Meg,

Alex was on 90 minute delay today and the snow has begun so he is hoping to be off tomorrow.

Lisa called again, TJ had their baby, Gavin Joseph, 7 lbs 11 ozs, all is well.

Everyone here is fine. It sounds like you are very busy. How rewarding your mission must seem.

God bless you. I wish I was there with you.

Love,
Mike
