Nothing much today.... i was pretty much in high spirits today. went to operation room with the super consultant with whom nobody is actually allowed to go... and i was allowed in his surgeries. i know he has ulterior motives...he thinks that i can be his passport to have a visiting surgeon post in Mauritius...ah Indians... still i played the game.
surgery wise...well..horrible hygiene measures....i wish those complaining patients from SBEH would have a look at this. i wonder how many endophthalmitis cases they have here. well..even though the consultant was operating...i wasn't impressed.... u know its nothing like the well standardised vitrectomy i like ( DPV,...) but i did learn 1-2 things. and instrument wise... well... they use the same disposable vitrectomy probe over and over again...until it no longer works! well...believe me we are blessed in Mauritius... Blessed!
meeting with my african fellows in the evening... i realise that they have completely different expectations from what i have. they are very much happy with the work here...well we did laugh a bit about how Ulumma from Nigeria was trying to communicate to the non english speaking shopkeeper that she needed toilet paper....hilarious!
Off to bed very very late after browsing about how i could escape this place and maybe( i'd love to!!) see my son and husband for few days...off to Mauritius mid Feb? off to Dubai with them? lets see...
