July 4th in Nalerigu

Ghana has a holiday on July 1st for Republic Day, but of course, July 4th is just another day here and in most of the rest of the world. It has been a pretty good day, but busy as usual. Made rounds this morning, attended patients in outpatient clinic, did 3 C-sections, and made night rounds since I am on call and responsible for all admissions since clinic.

We always see lots of kids and many are very sick. Here some waiting to be seen today in clinic:

Some staff taking vital signs on children

Weighing

Taking temperatures

Toward the end of clinic each day we are served a cold drink. Maybe they did think about US July 4th after all! This is what they served some people today:
 
...But bottled in Ghana
 
I like that it is the "Original". I guess Coke and Pepsi are just imitators!
