Tuesday morning

This morning we came to the hospital and dispersed. I'm with people from the hospital's "Transport" office. They have agreed to help get the luggage. A large van is supposedly on the way to assist me. I received text messages from Kenya Airways last night saying that they have 13 of our 14 missing bags and they should be at the Eldoret airport this morning.

Theresa is trying to meet up with the hospital's Communications folks. The President of Kenya is flying in this morning to dedicate the new cancer center. Theresa hopes to be able to write some articles for the "Gazetti", the IU-Kenya newsletter. Hmmm. I need to go to the airport and pick up a ton of luggage when the president's arriving. No chance of delays with this plan.

There are many, many patients waiting outside the ENT clinic, waiting to be seen by our team. The ENT team will first visit today's scheduled surgery patients who were admitted to the ward last night. That's the sequence of events for surgery here. Get admitted the day before, get any needed "investigations" (tests), and be ready for surgery the following day.
