From exclusive gated communities and pricey high rises to broken
down taxis and risky cut throat drivers, we have been through a wiiiiiiiide range
of experiences during our first few days in Accra, Ghana! This week was
business as usual; we put on our white coats every morning and made our way to
Korle bu Teaching Hospital where we took our place as integral parts of the
medical teams. We rounded on the medical wards, assessed patients, worked in
outpatient clinics, attended lectures, and took in all the differences between
our experiences as med students in Accra versus our experiences as med students in the states. But once the white coats came off we really did our best to explore the city if Accra!

| Our taxi broke down...twice, not the same taxi either. You have to respect the hardworking attitude of the people here. They do the best with what they have to provide for their families! |

I would like to thank Ultimate Health Home for reversing my father's Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). My father’s ALS condition was fast deteriorating before he started on the ALS Herbal medicine treatment from Ultimate Health Home. He was on the treatment for just 6 months and we never thought my father will recover so soon. He has gained some weight in the past months and he is able to walk with no support. You can contact them at ultimatehealthhome@gmail.com
