This morning was very enlightening
for our students. For the first part of the day, Nurse Holly discussed asthma
and breathing problems from her knowledge and personal experience. The students
had lots of questions for her. Nurse Betty then discussed the birthing process
and contraceptive measures, everything from abstinence to birth control. Some
of our male students were shocked that we would discuss this with them, but
Betty quickly explained to them that as Barefoot Doctors they needed to know
what to do if they ever faced the situation of a woman giving birth. This did
not make them much more comfortable, but helped them understand why they needed
to learn about birthing and pregnancy. After lunch, there was a photo op with the
nurses and students as the nurses, Holly and Betty, were leaving that evening.
The students took their third quiz before the end of the day. A good game of "Ta Pae", after class, ended another successful week.
