More of the same: vaginal hysterectomies followed by vaginal suspension or closureOur hotel is two miles up the road—the country's main highway, dusty with cars, busses, motorcycles, bicycles, and lots of trucks, all weaving in and out with constant horns. Most motorcyclists wear helmets but their passengers don't. Cyclists have no helmets and no lights, which is tricky at night. Some of us walk the four miles daily; others take the three-wheeled electric taxis that seat a tight four--”tuk-tuks” in other countries.
The nurses work the hardest, arriving early to prepare instruments, rooms, and patients for surgery; many stay until the last patient has made it though recovery and to the ward. Local nurses are hired to take care of patients at night.
No elevators so a long ramp allows gurneys access to the second floor postop ward.
