Note: this will be amended as sessions are added. This is not the final list.
All good things must come to an end
I knew when I got the approval to spend a year in Nepal teaching critical care that it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in global health nursing. I love Nepal, mainly because the people here are so nice, as well as being dedicated. But I’ll save the nostalgia for later, and focus on the fact that I will return to USA May 30th. that is ten weeks from now. I plan to keep teaching at full capacity until the last day, but I also need to think about setting things up so that others carry the work forward after I go.
The schedule of sessions as of March 5th
LNC session 2 – March 8th, 9th and 10th – coming right up.
open date – March 11th, 12th and 13th – any host hospitals out there for this slot?
March 15th through March 28th – family from USA come to visit. It might be possible to add one session during this time in the KTM Valley, mainly because my family is curious to see what it is that I do, here……any takers for March 22nd ,23rd and 24th – ?????

Oh and one last thing. Take at look at this review of The Sacrament of the Goddess, a novel of Nepal. You can buy it at Vajra Books in Thamel or the Tibet Books.
