Dr. Niko and the diabetes workshop

the troopers. nick did all of the diabetes testing, and spencer did most all of the blood pressure checking. couldnt have asked for more diligent workers. i weighed people, filled out their cards, and led them to the educational posters. Nick also preferred me to break the bad news to some of the patients who tested high on blood pressure or sugar.

the kids are playing on the scale in the background. Nick and I went the extra mile a the Mormon church.
this is me giving some diet tips to some Neiafu-Tai women. education is the key right?

this was actually back in april but i dont think i ever posted it. nick came with all his testing equipment and spencer came from Faleolupo village next door to help out with the testing. overall we tested about 150 people ages 20 to early 80s. the results were staggering, but i will not post them here.
