The One With The Night For Nurse Ngale (5/14/2013)


A few weeks ago I received an invitation to a celebration at Isoko hospital.  The invitation called it “the night for nurse ngale”.  After asking a lot of questions o figure out that exactly we were celebrating I realized that the night for nurse ngale is actually for nurse Florence Nightingale, who is very much respected and admired here for her work with the poor. 
Anyway, Sunday I headed down to Isoko hospital to celebrate.  Mr. Mbughi was, of course, the emcee of the event and I know now that it is a huge mistake to sit in the front of an event life this where the host knows your name.  I got called up for several games and to give an impromptu speech.  But, all in all, it turned out to be a really fun night.
