Dan's visit to the OR

Dan here….

Today started out just like any other day.  We got up, went to Bible study, and then started work for the day.  Kristen mentioned on the way to Bible study that another short-termer here asked if she could see Kristen do a C-section today.  We have mentioned from time to time that I should go up to the hospital to watch a C-section but the timing just hasn’t worked out up to this point.  Today was the day!  We got some male scrubs for me to wear from another doctor here and before lunch I saw Kristen do a C-section and welcome 2 healthy twin baby boys into the world.  It was the first time I got to see Kristen work, the first C-section I have ever seen, the first baby I have ever seen born, and the first time in an operating room!  It was a great experience.  It is nice to see my talented wife at work using the gifts that God has given her.
