Tuesday: Day 2 of Clinic

The day started with another wonderful breakfast at la cascada.  We made our way to the clinic and set up for another strong day.  Today was a very impressive display of teamwork.  We overcame several impediments to our success including fixing handpieces, suction lines and consoles.  We relied on the diversity of our group and our ability to adapt to difficult situations who knew that Matt's background working in a paint store would be such a great asset.  He has fixed more things in the clinic then I can remember.  We had similar production to yesterday with 50 fillings and 20 extractions, however we spearheaded some very difficult cases.  Tom and steph took on the most anxious ninos of Honduras.  Savannah proved invaluable again with her relentless work which and attention to detail helping multiple doctors at a time without waiver.  Laura has been working double time as well as Mackenzie who had both been working in the nursing clinic in the morning and the dental clinic by night.  The smiles and joy in the children and adults we have seen have more than paid for the hard work and sweat put in today.
