Africa - Weena, my friend, confidante and sometimes-roommate over the past 14 years, left UCSD med school for the fall to work in Kenya. She had been volunteering at Nyumbani Orphanage which was recently profiled in the NY Times. It's a bit strange to read and see pictures of the place and people who Weena described in her email in in an American newspaper. By the way, the girls on the swings are Knight and Christine. Christine was my Weena's one-on-one program charge. But it helps me to understand why Weena was so enthusiastic about returning to Nyumbani in the future.
