I was filled with so much doubt when we first landed in Belize and later pulled up to the clinic. I was sure that God had sent the wrong person to work in the clinic and I didn’t know what I was going to do for 23 more days. Thankfully my whole perspective of this trip quickly turned around. I look back now and I am beyond thankful for the time I got to spend in Belize. Being there made me realize that my future job as a pharmacist is not about how many prescriptions I can verify in a day or how much money I can make the company I work for but instead about the people I’m serving and the quality of care they get. The people of Patchakan village endured my awful Spanish without complaint and taught me so much about the type of pharmacist I want to be. I thank God each day for this opportunity – the most wonderful, life-altering experience that I have ever had!
