Our last week (well 10 days) . Mom looking excited about specimen, though a few seconds before she was NOT looking happy! Below is David helping cut up a mandiblectomy for ameloblastoma! Too proove, we really DO work, but the weekend photos are so much more fun, and less likely to be unappetizing!
Last luncheon at house with lab staff. Claire's next to last day. Luckily she checked her flight (or maybe unluckily) which turned out to be a day earlier then expected!
Mom and Rochelle spent last sat at Crater lake (long, HOT drive and hike) and Sawela lodge (great swimming and food!)

| Philip and little girl Stacy; notice all the CLOTHES!! All the children are dressed like that, when we are in skirts and tshirts or tank tops! |

| Sorry, one more work photo; amputation done for melanoma of the foot which is a common problem here, maybe due to lack of adequate shoes. |

| Visiting Coptic hospital in Nairobi. This clinic treats 14,000 patients with HIV, including 600 children, with free medicines, while studying drug resistance. I'm going to collaborate with Dr. Michael Chung on studies of preventing/screening for cervical cancer/precancerous lesions in patients with HIV. | |

Last night; out for authentic roast goat and Ugali, though I have to admit, I supplemented with leftover salad, soup and cheese! Tiny little place, warm, goat served on wooden cutting board with small piles of salt and bowls of chopped tomatoes and onions (instructed shouldn't eat them) and hunks of Ugali (corn/maze cooked into a kind of pasty firm gooh). No utensils or bowls, but warm water was provided before and after eating to wash hands. Wine was available in a box, so that helped wash everything down!
After meal, went dancing; Photo is outside of bar; photos in bar too dark, but another fun night dancing to Swahili music!
