The week ended with an introduction to oxygen administration, artificial ventilations, suctioning and CPR. In addition, we had more knot work and survival shelter construction. We ended on Friday with an exam. Instructor Trenton Harper flew home today (Saturday). Andrea Stephens arrives next Saturday.
On our first day off, most of us hiked to the Rio Negro, about a half an hour from here, and swam. A few are gathering as we write this to challenge some other people to a game of Ultimate Frisbee. We are all eating at the local (and only) cafe in town tomorrow evening, watching the Super Bowl and generally getting ready for next week. The week will begin with lengthy scenarios down by the river and instruction of anatomy, physiology and pathophysiology.
