Oral thiobendazole has been used for heavily infected patients as well.<BR/><BR/>I can't believe he didn't send them home with something!TFEBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13241727762049127869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8651495.post-17649599112064663812007-07-15T20:43:00.000+07:002007-07-15T20:43:00.000+07:00I was wondering about the potty training when I sa...I was wondering about the potty training when I saw some of your pics... How much longer before he is potty trained?<BR/><BR/>I'm a little disappointed that the doctor broke it down to money, and how much he could be making doing other surgeries. :( I hope you can find some topical anesthesia, because their little feet looked raw! Do you have any Doctor's without borders in your area? My neighbor's grandson and grand-daughter-inlaw recently went to Africa for part of their internship. They are in such bad shape, and I'm not sure how comfortable I would feel about a doctor who is more concerned about how many major surgeries he can crank out in the time it would take to help these children. <BR/><BR/>Did he have any thoughts on the oral ivermectin??? It works on that guinea worm (???) that causes river blindness. And I read that there have been studies showing that it worked on these sand fleas. <BR/><BR/>ARGH! Good luck!TFEBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13241727762049127869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8651495.post-68136987853195888252007-07-14T19:36:00.000+07:002007-07-14T19:36:00.000+07:00Wow, Adele. The stories of these kids ... I am so ...Wow, Adele. The stories of these kids ... I am so thankful God has sent you and your colleagues to be Jesus' hands and feet in caring for them. I cringe at so many parts and wonder if I'd have the strength to deal with some of the "grosser" parts, but I am encouraged to see how He strengthens you and fills you with His love and compassion.Macchiattohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01143076637938193104noreply@blogger.com
