HaNoi, Vietnam

This was our mission trip to National Pediatric Hospital in HaNoi. We went room to room and instructed, explained, corrected, advised and loved.

This young doctor was awesome and did ALL our interpeting for us. I was telling him how grateful we were.

I was talking with this mother and explaining what she could do to help her son. The drs. and nurses listened and learned also. They focus more on the physical care than the mental and spirit. We were constantly touching babies and speaking softly to role model .

This grandmother stayed here 24/7. She would secretively hand signal to us to pray him.

There were times we would see up to 3 babies in an incubator. Their names were taped to their foreheads.
This is the new playroom that took 1 year to build. We were thrilled!
This is the nurses station where they served us Jasmine tea and green bean cake....yummmm! : }
I was showing the student nurses how to position a baby who was on a ventilator so she would be more comfortable.
Good old Hochiman (statue) was everywhere. This was the team that went all over the hospital with us.
Elaine, my cohort in crime, was lecturing with me to the nurses from the provinces [out in the country].
