Last Day on Ward 14


We had our last day in Kampala on Tuesday because we are heading for Masaka to join the rest of the UBC group. We got a very special send-off. Two of the senior Ugandan midwives, Sisters Sarah and Florence, came to meet us when we finished changing. They called us “A-one professional midwives” and said we were "the liveliest” group they had ever had. Then they took our measurements (we guess they are making something for us). Then they took all our backpacks, bags and paraphernalia and insisted on carrying everything for us. They said that by carrying all our things it showed their respect for us and that it meant that we would come back! We are so very touched by what they did for us. We definitely plan to come back and spend our last week with them!
