say it all

I always say it all as it comes/happens depending on the magnitude!

Monday 15 October 2012

St. Paul's Free Medcamp! A volunteer's story.

Sharing love, Healing by Faith.
The theme was well chosen to suit the day.
Participants driven by love,
And attendants healed by Faith.

No parting with a single cent!
Just make yourself present
And enjoy the moment
Because it is free treatment.

Both the young and the old,
Healthy and sick
Underweight, overweight,
Long, short and normal sighted,
All the way to St. Pauls,
For the free medcamp.

I find health check up expensive,
But love made it cheap for me
Nothing I can offer as a being,
May the good Lord reward you abundantly.

Assuming the busy schedule,
All were eady to perform the role.
In a place far a awy from home,
Which is not a crime.

Doctors! Present.
Nurses! Present.
Paeditricians! Young at heart.
Dentists! Smiling all through.
Oncologist! Already at work.
Volu teers! At you service.
Security! Afande!

Underweight, overweight or obese?
Get the BMI test.
Take a pause, relax
And have your blood pressure measured.
What is the result?

The diabetes test kits scared me!
Those pricks reminded of the painful injections.
I could see it on peoples' faces.

My blood sugar level is too high?
No! it is just that you have taken lunch.
Therefore the levels tend to get higher.
Thank Gpd.

What? The dentistry department did it!
Almost all my friends
Got their spoilt teeth into the bin.
One of them rushed to kitchen to confirm his fears.
Was  I going be the next one?
I passed their in the rush hour.

The lion and the eagle,
Ilove these wild animals!
very sharp and accurate in eye sight.
the lions club and eagles eye opticians
were never in sabotage,
X, E, D_ _ _my eyes were okay!

Senior and junior doctors
Carefully analysed patient complaints
In those long queues!
All had to be attended to.
Even if it meant foregoing some meals
No time wastage at all!
_ _ _ next patient please.

The red team upstairs
Busy all through.
Cervical, ovarian, prostrate_ _ _ cancer.
Cines were too loong too.
'You are too young for prostrate cancer!'
Iwas told.


Some questions were difficult to answer.
Where is the nutritionist?
ENT specialist?
Orthopaedic surgeaon?
Gastroenterologist?
Points of order for next time.

Volunteers! At you service.
Caterers gave out every slice,
Ushers maintained the pace,
Media kept the race,
MCs/DJs/PA left everyone informed and enterteind.
Registry ensured every record entry,
Cleaners revived the Wangari memory,
Infrastructure assumed any mockery
Cooperation was appeasing.
