Emergency case in IDP clinic / Cas d'urgence à la clinique de DPI

3/9/2010

 
An English paragraph follows the French one this time.

Un bébé de 7 mois a été transporté aujourd’hui dans notre vieux bus scolaire, avec sa maman, de notre clinique mobile à Croix-des-Bouquets à l’hôpital international sous  des grandes tentes, le Miami-Dade International (près de l’aéroport de P-au-P). La très petite fille souffrait d’une malaria aigüe, était extrêmement mince, et aussi complètement déshydratée. Nous y retournerons aujourd'hui pour la chercher afin de la ramener à notre clinique de camp des PDI (‘personnes déplacées internes’) à Croix-des-Bouquets.


 A 7-month old baby was transferred (in our old school bus), together with her mom, from our mobile clinic to the Miami-Dade International field hospital (near the P-au-P airport). The little girl was suffering from acute malaria, terribly thin, and complete dehydrated, on the point of dying. We will have to get her to take her back to the IDP (internal displaced persons) camp at Lycée Jacques 1st high school in Croix-des-Bouquets where we’re holding one of our clinics this week (long line-ups!).
