Victoria was a patient from our February trip (upper picture). She had an extremely large goiter removed. Yesterday, Susan was asking about some of the patients from February who had major surgeries. Victoria was one that the clinic nurse, Sophia, didn't know about off the top of her head. And because Susan asked about her, Sophia tracked her down and asked her to come back to clinic. So today, there was Victoria, all healed up and doing great (lower picture). Also worth noting, she had her daughter traveling with her to help her get here and to clinic and to interpret. Victoria only speaks her tribal language and not English or Swahili. Through her eyes, smile, and interpreter, she was very thankful.
