Day 1 has proven to be busy day for us all. We started early with a trip to the 'shantytowns' that rise into the foothills just beyond Lima. It really served to highlight the very dire circumstances in which some of children live. The shantytowns are home to many of the children who come to the clinic to receive services.
We followed this with an introduction to the people and families at Armonizar. We all were forced to put our Spanish skills to the test when we were provided with the 12 charts of the children who we will be seeing. All involved were welcoming and eager to have us in their clinic. Sue and a returning student from last year's trip were excited to re-connect with some of the children who were seen last year!
