http://www.trethewaylines.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 16, 2015. WHO Checklist / Lifeboat Training. Here is an article from our Medical Capacity Building Manager, Krissy Close about some recent training she has been managing. If you want to see me get passionate about something, ask me about the Checklist. If you've had surgery in the last decade you may recall being asked several times on the day of surgery questions like what is your name, what are you here for today, and do you have any allergies. You're operating on me! This week we welc...

Tretheway Lines: January 2015
http://www.trethewaylines.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 25, 2015. We didn't really know what to expect coming to Madagascar, we knew it was part of Africa but somehow it was VERY different to the West Africa we had come to know. There is a feeling of calm with no busy traffic jams. The TUK - TUK. Cost: about $1-2 per journey). The crew clubbed together to buy 2 "Mercy Ships Tuk-Tuk's" to run people to and from the port gates. We all buy a monthly "travel" ticket which pays for fuel, a job for a local and the vehicle. It can be a long w...We fe...

Tretheway Lines: Where Are Our Patients Coming From
http://www.trethewaylines.com/2015/02/where-are-our-patients-coming-from.html
Monday, February 09, 2015. Where Are Our Patients Coming From. I've always thought of Madagascar as a little island off the coast of the Southern tip of Africa - but when you are here you discover how big this country is. It takes around 8 hours just to travel by road to the capital city. Comparison of size to UK! Here is a map to show where they are coming from (this was calculated before the Toliara and Mahajanga screenings). Posted by Tim, Sharon and Nathanael Tretheway. Serving with Mercy Ships.

Tretheway Lines: Romino
http://www.trethewaylines.com/2015/04/romino.html
Wednesday, April 29, 2015. This little boy stole the nurses hearts when they met him. Cute, funny and always wanting to be the centre of attention, he has no idea that his bowed legs are supposed to slow him down! He was amongst the final orthopaedic surgeries. He and the others will have a chance to be just like the other kids. Thank you! Above is the team that makes these little straight legs happen. Pray for them as they continue to carry out physiotherapy to get these legs working well. Other Blogs o...

Tretheway Lines: Massive Lipoma Removed
http://www.trethewaylines.com/2014/04/jean-bosco-is-farmer.html
Saturday, April 12, 2014. Jean Bosco is a farmer. Just north of Congo’s capital city of Brazzaville, fields bear the mark of his honest labor – hectares of cassava, gardens of blooming eggplant and tomato, and lime and mango trees providing welcoming shade from the African sun. Was, in fact, a lipoma – a benign, soft-tissue tumor composed of body fat. Left untreated, a lipoma can reach giant proportions. Nevertheless, Jean refused to give up. Day after day, he worked to save more money, desperately h...
