Dr. Brueck's 11th Siberian Diary Day

This is the 11th daily diary entry from Dr. Brueck's medical mission in Siberia.

July 7^th 2008

Today, we were going to go to Ludmilla's house. She was the key contact person in Tashtyp and we were going to see patients in her home, so we didn’t have a far journey to get to her home.

We worked hard all day seeing people with different complaints; we worked all the way through until about 6 o’clock. After that everybody was tired including me and we went back to Wolfgang's house, and Grisha and I walked back to our “hotel”.

We cleaned up and then made our way back to Wolfgang's house for dinner. By the time we had finished dinner and gotten back to our hotel it was about 9 or 9:30.

It was difficult for me to try and fall asleep because it was still daylight out and I tossed and turned.

It was hard for me to keep track of the days because one day seemed to blend into the next with little sleep, no sleep, etc.
