Day 2 – The kids are here

I just got back from the pier after getting acquainted with the 2 of the 3 kids who will be receiving surgeries (Gerald was picked-up early by his family in Manila before I could become a bad influence to him). It was great to finally match at least 2 personalities to the faces in photos used for my aunt’s website.

The photo above is of Lester who needs a closure done on his colostomy. That photograph was taken when he was seen by a doctor last year. The photo on the right is of Lester and I annoying passengers, taken an hour ago on the pier after they arrived.

Tomorrow we’ll all meet at the Ospital ng Maynila to meet with Dr. Troncales to start getting things running at the hospital in terms of pre-surgery visits and preparations.

Im finally getting used to the weather again. Earlier today we visited the flea market at the divisoria and had some rambutan. Why does rambutan look so damn freaky? Usually living things with odd protrusions are poisonous and deadly, like lion fish or ugly-ass caterpillars. Whatever.
