Mission to Ethiopia with Mr. Bucs: The Final Act
http://mrbucsmissiontoethiopia.blogspot.com/2009/03/final-act.html
Mission to Ethiopia with Mr. Bucs. Thursday, March 5, 2009. The fourth floor is hushed, most of the team gone for the day. Tariktu would not be here now if the hospital staff had not forgotten to feed him. Patients must fast from twelve to twenty-four hours before receiving anesthesia. Luckily, the food cart didnt make it to this little patients room. 8:34 pm and he cuts a piece of something off. We sense a turn of events, the next step, a new act in this surgical drama. He calls for silk ties...Liz a...

http://mrbucsmissiontoethiopia.blogspot.com/2009/03/seventh-floor.html
Mission to Ethiopia with Mr. Bucs. Wednesday, March 4, 2009. Theyre all running the halls, letting off steam. They have been there for hours or days, huddled around the campfire waiting for the doctor to call. Did word come up from the OR? I cast them off and race down the stairwell through drifting masses of people. There are people everywhere. Posted by Jeff Bucs. Comments can't be posted at this time.

Mission to Ethiopia with Mr. Bucs: On the Mend!
http://mrbucsmissiontoethiopia.blogspot.com/2009/03/on-mend.html
Mission to Ethiopia with Mr. Bucs. Thursday, March 12, 2009. These two photos were taken a few days after Tarikutus discharge. I think Tefsa shaved his head to heal his scabies. Dom wanted Tarikutu to stay in Addis for at least a month but Tefsa couldnt commit to that amount of care although she promised to drive him from the village for his weekly check ups @ Black Lion. She told me. Posted by Jeff Bucs. 1) type your comment/post. 3) type your email address in the "name" box and press "continue.". Some ...

http://mrbucsmissiontoethiopia.blogspot.com/2009/02/journey-home.html
Mission to Ethiopia with Mr. Bucs. Thursday, February 26, 2009. The boy is named Tariktu. His name means history. Life thus far are easily defeated by a smile that is mesmerizing. We are sure that we will never forget her. Her brother Josefs gentle face and warm smile immediately put us all at ease. Everyone settles in for the trip. The children have not seen their mother in a week. Tariktu is still looking out the window. What is he thinking about? Posted by Jeff Bucs. 1) type your comment/post. 3) type...

Mission to Ethiopia with Mr. Bucs: It Takes a Village
http://mrbucsmissiontoethiopia.blogspot.com/2009/03/it-takes-village.html
Mission to Ethiopia with Mr. Bucs. Tuesday, March 3, 2009. It Takes a Village. As we enter the house made of mud and sticks, a member of our crew turns to me and says, "This is one of the nicer ones. Look at the metal roof. Often it's just a tarp." Sandra and Osian, two very talented filmmakers who are documenting the World Surgical Foundation's mission to Ethiopia, set up in the kitchen. I am surrounded. I feel a kiss on the back of my neck. I am from outer space. The dust. The flies. Disease? The villa...
