7 pounds in 24 hours. That's how much weight I managed to lose due to some bad meat I ate at the cafeteria on Tuesday afternoon. Not fun at all - especially given that I am trying to wrap things up at work and have endless lists of things I hoped to accomplish. Losing weight and sleeping for 24 hours straight were not on that list.
On a happier note, my parents were here for a long weekend this last weekend. We had a great time - they got to see the mountains, the beach and the clinic....some of the best of Haiti.
On an even happier note, today is my last day in the clinic for at least 2 months! I leave Haiti tomorrow afternoon and will now call New York state home once again. Even better is that I don't have to say a real goodbye to the people I love in Haiti. I know I'll be back for a week or so in October and likely a few more times over the next academic year. For now it's just "a la pwochenn" - until next time.
