A hard day

Friday morning was hard. We saw a lot of sad cases in Dr. Velasco’s office. A young mother, an HIV positive baby, a little girl with a serious skin problem, and mothers who couldn’t afford medicine for their kids. Sorry to sound sensational. The emotions were very real and I’ve been thinking a lot about these people so it feels right to mention them. I felt sad and awkward at the same time that morning. The shoes I wore cost more than the medicine required for a little boy to get well. There are some things in this world I don’t understand and can’t begin to justify. We said goodbye to Dr. Velasco and Pamela and it was sad to leave, but I hope this is just the beginning.
