At Lajero Blanco the medical team was able to assist 500 patients with anything from cleaning out their ears to treating a head cold that was going around the community. They were able to see babies and even an older couple of over 60 years of marriage and 19 children. They were able to provide the medicine for each person as needed and if they did not have the medicine Dr. Brenda would give them a home remedy to use. The pharmacy was steadily filling prescriptions as needed. This was an amazingly smooth process. We learned this week if you have high blood pressure do not use cinnamon and honey. Cinnamon is not good for high blood pressure. Also for dehydration Dr. Brenda said to use lemon and water. Dr. Brenda shared so many of her home remedies with us this week. A very talented and godly lady serving here in Honduras. Thank you Dr. Brenda for your wisdom.
"A joyful heart is good medicine, but a broken spirit dries up the bones."
