This will be the last entry of the trip!!

Hello everyone!! Today marks 2 more weeks until I get to see you all!! You better get ready for me!

But THINGS ARE WELL!!  Last week was a lot easier to handle in the hospital because I think I am finally used to the smell, the people, the procedures, the craziness. We spent most of the time working in the maternity ward, which is the craziest...
