Day 2

We had a busy day, setting up the clinic, doing inventory, and getting everyone up to speed on audiograms and "hanging hearing aids".
We have a little problem with no hearing aid batteries. We bought all we could find in Antigua and the store, Casa de Gomez will try to get us more by Wednesday.
We ran our clinic until 5:00 and then headed to our favourite restaurant, Hector's. We got one of their 3 tables along with Dr. Mario and his wife, Cindy. Murray (aka Dr. Mario), who is one of the anaesthetists, was doing pre-ops today and using his Spanish, asking patients to "inspire y expire" while he listened to their chest. Turns out he was asking them to "inspire and die!"
We have a busy day tomorrow, so good night.
