Mango tasting party

17 year old girl with never-treated
congenital clubfoot

What does the siani team do to unwind after a challenging day which included two tumor cases and bilateral cases on 8 month olds......A mango tasting party while perseverating on the days cases and our cravings for......shhh don't tell anyone at the hospital. MEAT. Although the food is really good here at HAH it is vegetarian and most of us are omnivores who enjoy red meat at times. I have a feeling that first taste of meat when we get back to the states will be the best any of us have had. Even with the mosquitoes biting( I had a target lesion, no worries not lymes diseas) and my DEET not working team Sinai came together over mangos and for most of the night...a very large brown speckeled orangish fleshed fruit that for the better part of the night, we had no clue what it was but some did partake, about an hour later Jaunty came in and told us it was an abricot!!! It was the largest apricot we had ever seen. Fun times were had by all Tuesday evening. This morning brings TSFs, arthroscopes, Triple arthrodesis, and a few Tals and maybe dinner at the auberge???
