Lab exam

So I found this woman in front of the surgery door waiting to get in. I asked her to have a seat and wait for the nurse to come out.  Later I found her standing right before the same door again. She had something in her hand. A cup with....urine. She was standing in front of the wrong door! She had to go to the lab.

Family planning

A young woman with 2 children came to the clinic. She used to get an "every-3 months- shot" for not getting pregnant. Her husband recently went outside Haiti to work so she would not be needing any family planning at this moment. But her shot would still be valid for another month. And that's the reason she had an infection of her private parts....so she told me.

12 kids

A mother told me the father of her children died last year. Today she told me her husband was sick and admitted at a voodoo doctors place. So I ask her about this guy. Well, she says, the father of 6 of my children died. And I have 12 kids all together.  But only with one father. I am lost.

A father and a mother come to the clinic with their 1 moth old baby. The baby has a lot of gas I notice. It's like firework! The father talks about 

Water (amnionic)

While doing an ultrasound on a 5 month pregnant woman I notice she has not enough amnionic fluid. I mentioned this to her and her husband. Oh said the man that's what the gynecologist already told us. He said to just drink more water..... Actually it's not the first time I hear this advise.

2 months

So this morning this young healthy woman from far away tells me this: I had an accident 2 months ago. I had to go to school first but now I am here. So tell me what did I hurt in my body during the accident?
