Hi, we are watching the lunar eclipse and people are beating drums.
Today we had interesting patient with a prostate problem with a retention 4 times greater than I ever experienced. Doc was able to aspirate through the abdomen wall to confirm the urine retention diagnosis before installing a foley. People carry him in a hammock. I have never seen a man in such a bad shape. He is 60 and skin and bones. We med-evac him tomorrow. I am not sure if he can be saved he is so weak. He needs an operation that he may not survive . We also have two girls with congenital tumors that we will have removed... chiggers are a pain but salt seem to knock them off.
I am in the pharmacy explaining how to take drugs. Kathy does triage and Robyn does translations as a nurse. We have had 3 people go down with the flu at this time (two of the three are now vertical) and we are hoping it has run its course.
That is all for now.
love me
