Saturday night we had an 80s dance party! Who knew serving on a ship off the coast of West Africa could be so much fun?! We were wondering what the locals thought of us... a bunch of white people in crazy clothes jumping around to loud music on the top deck of a ship. :) It was a great time to laugh, be silly and let our hair down with our fellow shipmates.


walk like an egyptian...:)


doing the limbo ...

My beautiful roommate...so stylish! :)
It was a great time!
Now then, I wouldn't want you to think we only play on this ship called Africa Mercy. I have a few pictures (a bit graphic I'm warning you) of some of our patients going into surgery. They had some of the most massive tumors I've seen and have lived trying to hide their face... How sad! Praise God for amazing surgeons and for the fact that these patients are recovering nicely on our wards.
This is the mama of one of my favorite tiny babies in the whole world!! We have loved caring for her baby while she recovers. :)

This person wore a cloth over her face all the time to cover this tumor. What a new start! I am so thankful for the opportunity to serve these people :)
