Hope for Life; PCC; Buduburam; etc. Monday, April 24, 2006. Sometimes, I even sit with the person and talk with them about their needs, listen to their struggles, witness their tears, hear and feel the pain and suffering in their voice. And then I turn away; I turn that person away. I don’t offer anything more than my ear for that brief moment, or that hour, we spent together. And then maybe I go have a beer.

Hope for Life; PCC; Buduburam; etc. Sunday, February 26, 2006. It seems a lot of time has been spent in hospitals recently. The Dixon blog (my last entry) talks a little of the hospital experience. On this day when we found ourselves waiting 14 hours to see the doctor. I don’t always need to go to the hospitals, but sometimes if I need to be sure to have information, specific information, specific questions answered, details about a prognosis, etc. then I need to go. This is what we did with Dixon he arr...

Hope for Life; PCC; Buduburam; etc. Saturday, December 24, 2005. Ir children are in the school and to see them signing, 'talking' to each o. Ther, 'talking' to the teachers and others who know sign, etc. It’s a huge struggle to be deaf or hard of hearing in Africa. There is so much stereotyping to overcome. I was listening to a program on BBC (the news station I most often can receive and listen to on the radio in Ghana) recently that was talking to listeners about what. Posted by steve @ 8:28 PM.

Hope for Life; PCC; Buduburam; etc. Tuesday, January 24, 2006. I’ve been back at work for a couple of weeks. In that time, I’ve spent 7 hours at a hospital one afternoon and evening (the person with whom I was there, and who needed to see the doctor, had arrived 7 hours before I did! Anyway it’s not as busy as it sounds I’ve also had time to relax and watch some DVDs at night. The CT scan (which cost almost $200 thank you everyone who has sent open donations for making this possible) was back in my office.

Water comes from many different sources, and for refugees on the camp, it’s not something taken for granted; they don’t have a right to it it’s (usually) not free, it’s not usually flowing (and if it is you sure don’t want to drink. Then there are polytanks from which we get bath water, wash water, etc. To fill the polytanks, though, you may need to stand 1 or 2 days ...

Hope for Life; PCC; Buduburam; etc. Sunday, October 30, 2005. So, we’re trying to see how to go about that any suggestions anyone has will be greatly appreciated. We have been up and down to Accra and the different doctors getting documentation of her condition and the treatments she’s received in the past.
