Leaving Tenwek...

Leaving Bomet on the 4 hour ride back to Nairobi.  The road is shared with pedestrians, motorbikes, donkey's, cow's, goat's, sheep.  Therefore, the picture below is what can occur and why Tenwek Orthopedics is in constant business.


A typical but EXTREME fracture of the femur seen on the day I was in the OR.  The first hospital this guy went to sent him away with a cardboard splint.   Thank goodness for Tenwek.
