community duty

since murag dugay na kaayo nga wa ko nipost ngari.. (ug wa na juy gapost2x ngari) ako lang ta ni ishare ninyo akong experience.

this was our second community duty but the first time was simply conducting a surve
y pero maskina, first timers japun mi. as beginners, we have duty for only 2 1/2 days. on the first day, we had our entomological study where we went from house to house to gather "ngoyo-ngoyo" or mosquito larva. wa pa jud ko kasabot sa amo buhaton at first mga several minutes later pko kagetz nga nangita diay mig mosquite larva. haha on the second day, we had our home visit. we'd go to a house and have a lengthy interview about the person's health condition. well actually akong partner ang nag interview jud nya ako tig buhat sa procedures mismo nya musingit lng ko gamay sko makaya ra nga bisaya. haha me and my partner were the only ones assigned to an actual dengue case and kulba pud xag case. dengue, ITP infection, leukemia ug unsa pa 2ng mga sakita. grabe ka complicated. haha on the last day, the best day, it was immunization day so there were sooooo many mothers who went to the health office and we were given the chance to inject the babies. it was like, the real thing. kulba kaayo at first pero once nakasuway, shet lingawa jud dah. haha! we also weighed the babies, got their temperature, etc. akong trabaho jud while waiting for my turn sa injection kay magtake sa BP sa mga tao. nalingaw sad ko ato. mura sad kog true. haha

so yea, mao ra 2. hehe here's some pictures..
