We had an immunization clinic in the morning for Tim and Jessica Robertson (shown in the picture) and Ohn. Each got 2-3 shots from me. For their sake, I wish that my nurse, Karen was here. All had sore shoulders. But they were better on Friday. We also helped Tim and Jessica move to their own apartment from the home of Steve and Deborah Wise. In the afternoon we went to Svay Kang to ask about what they knew about the causes and treatments for diarrhea, headaches, and arthritis. I am trying to develop lessons emphasizing natural treatments that are readily available since they cannot afford the medicines we might take. For part of the time a Kru Khmer, traditional Cambodian healer, was there. He seemed to open up after I assured him that I was not there to take his job (either personally or with good health lessons) I would like to work with him to a certain extent, but he also uses the magic of the spirit world, that is demonic. So pray for wisdom on future trips as I try to develop these lessons.
