My Balad Set-Up


The top picture is one of the OR's, I did finally get to do a mandible fracture. The hospital has basically everything you need. Below is my house! It is with in these large cement T barriers and then surrounded by sandbags. I have all the essentials, bed, desk, tv, and most importantly a bathroom which I share. This is really a treat. Most people have to walk to the bathroom in a large bathhouse I am very fortunate. 

I have been getting into a routine, it basically revolves around working out, eating and sleeping. I just purchased wifi the other day it is spotty at best in my room. The blog has been difficult to contact for some reason. Uploading pics has also been difficult. I will try my best!!

  1. Sounds Like the Hilton - What else do you need?? Glad you got your hands wet doing real surgery (OMS). Speaking from experience, keep your mind occupied - it goes by faster. You are in our thoughts and prayers. We are proud of you!! Stay safe and have fun.

  2. You should have shaved that guy's mustache while you were operating on him, just to give him a little surprise when he woke up.

  3. Hi Bren. It was great to "see" and talk to you last night (this morning? tomorrow morning? I can't get the time change straight!) Julie & the boys & I are heading for my house in a little bit. Julie is getting the plants watered, etc. We're keeping you in our prayers daily. Love you--
