My life as I know it …...

No day is the same… a dear friend once told me 'Some days are diamonds, some pearls'. I never grasped this concept until now… they may be different, but both are precious.

I have no job description… for the first time in my life… and, truthfully, I would not wish to be restricted by one… my life is what it needs to be, anything it needs to be. And everything it needs to be…


Malabon - our outreach….
Crafts ….
As the crowds gather…..
Recycling in Malabon….
Child's play will always be Child's play….
And toys will always be discarded…..
Light in the darkness
Too much freedom with my iPhone :) 
Too much freedom with my iPhone :)

Neighbours washing line ….. on the street
A boy I (literally) picked up on my way to work, semi-naked, and  on the street corner crying…..
mum at work and left unsupervised …. he had escaped. They were happily reunited :)
A climb to Floor 4 because the door was locked from the inside!
Daniel - a 2 yr old cerebral palsy, seizures….due to maternal TB…. 5 kgs
CXR diagnosing…. pneumonia and TB!
Chicken pox …. hit most of our children
since Varicella vaccine is not on the Government schedule
Too much freedom with my iPhone :)
Delight in reaching milestones…..my delight

Diagnostics clinic!! 
Developing x-rays
TB clinic …a home from home


And a patient of ours…. no, not patient…. a family member! 
Unknown rashes!!!
My 'Walk Club' 
De-worming of Gentle Hands! Medicine and a Mentoes
New sight for Tacloban child….. and a little carousel ride in between!
Mumps!! 
My science lesson on hearing
Joey….TB, severe oedema …. not well!
New vaccination fridge -
GH has become its very own vaccination center .
You will not believe what joy this brings me :)
My road… to home
My alley to home….

I do not know the exact reason I have been brought here… but I do live each day as if that were the reason… because you never know how large that change will become.
