I spent my morning in the surgical floor in the HOPE clinic. I have not felt as much love from people I do not even know ever before. I was baffled by the instant connection I felt after meeting the nurses, patients, and family members for the very first time.<br \/>\nChak Riya was an instant friend. She is a young nurse who has very good English. She took me under her wing right away and taught me! I was starting IVs, drawing blood for labs, prepping patients for surgery and taking vitals with her. We talked a lot and bonded in the first few hours I was there.<br \/>\nI also met Rom Channy and Hun Chanse. Chanse says hi to the 2010 team-(he asked for Chelsea and Kim\u2019s e-mail addresses. He has your pop account addresses). His smile was remarkable, I will never forget it!<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><br \/>\nEvery day our team sits in a circle and we go over our \u201chighs and lows\u201d for the day. I was not surprised that many other team members shared the same \u201chigh\u201d as I did. The people love before they think! We can all learn so much from the love that this culture shares. <strong>There is no hesitation.<\/strong> Their smiles are beautiful and captivating and unforgettable. I felt so loved this morning. As I looked out into the waiting area my eyes were instantly met with huge, warm smiles. I walked into a patient room to take vital signs and I was greeted by the entire family. The mother was holding a small child who kept inching closer and closer to me until he finally reached out and gave me a kiss on the cheek. He followed me around, touching me and shyly running away all morning.<br \/>\nI am so happy that I have this opportunity to be totally immersed in this culture! I cannot wait for more! We are going to Ratanakiri tomorrow for three days to see the beautiful rural country\u2026can\u2019t wait. Love you fam!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2011 Mission Trip to Cambodia from Suzanne Hutson, Nursing Student Today was one of my favorite days!
