DAY 11 - Saturday, June 2 - SINDO DISTRICT HOSPITAL

Today is a big day for the potential project on the Island.  We are going to visit the Sindo District Hospital on the mainland.  A working collaboration with this facility is key to going forward with any sort of Project CURE assistance in this area.

I am happy to say that I was pleasantly surprised.  The Sindo facilities are top notch, the best I've seen of level 4 government hospitals.  Amazingly clean and organized.  I was equally impressed with the managing doctor we met with.

Great conversation.  It gave me hope for this project.  There are certain, modest, requirements of the hospital to move this project forward and, unfortunately, the local people never have the requisite authority, but we'll see.  Let's hope Chaz can work his magic before he returns to the US in August.
