2 Weeks!

I leave for Kenya in 2 weeks! From February 6 to March 7, five of my classmates (including my friends, Christa and Amanda) and I will be shadowing nurses in a Nairobi hospital three days a week, teaching health classes to Kenyan college students, and serving at various other clinical sites. It will be a lot of work and a lot of learning, and I'm hoping a lot of adventure!
We have each agreed to take along a suitcase full of medical supplies for Kenyan health organizations. We're looking for stethoscopes, thermometers, blood pressure cuffs, scrubs, bandages, sterile gauze, antibiotic ointment, glucometers, gloves, hand sanitizer, infant scales, tongue depressors, headlamps and penlights. We're also accepting donations to buy medical supplies. If you want to help out, let me know soon - cause I don't know if I mentioned it, but I leave in TWO WEEKS!
