Dear
Brother, Beppe,
I am sure that tomorrow I will not be able
to say anything with much sense.
Probably I will only cryJ even if I promised to myself that I
will not.
I am so happy that God brought me to
Chaaria. I have never planned to come to
Africa. It was really his action and his
will to put this idea in my mind and make me brave enough to realize that.
I always try to discern if something is
good in my life by its fruits. I see now
beautiful fruits of my time in Chaaria. Everything is saying to me that it was a
good decision to come here…especially for the 2nd time.
Of course I am sad that I am leaving
Chaaria today, but “this time” I feel also very peaceful and happy. I am so grateful!
I hope you know how much I am grateful for everything.
Thank you so much for giving me the chance,
for trusting me, teaching me, appreciating me.
It means a lot to me. Here in Chaaria, I feel like in the place I
was always looking for, and having you as a teacher is like….. I don’t know…… I
can’t find the right words.
Thank you that I always could ask you about
everything, even very simple things. It
was very important to me that you never showed me that I am useless or stupid.
I really know how imperfect is my knowledge
but I also know how much I learnt during this 6 months.
It was a wonderful feeling to be able to do
new things, to help and to see that the others are appreciating me.
I know I could spend more time in theatre
as you said: “you are always welcome”, but sometimes it was so difficult for me to
resign from working in the wards or outpatient.
In Chaaria I love both things: surgery and
general medicine.
Being a doctor in Chaaria makes me
happy. It is a totally different thing compared
to what I experienced in Poland. I love
my Country but I am not sure if I will find satisfaction and mission in working
in Poland.
As you advised me, I will try to finish my
formation, I have to value the fact that specialization in Poland is free (not
like in Kenya) but I am not very sure if it is the best I can do. Probably, here in Chaaria I could learn more J and help more…
Anyway, the plan is that I am going back
and I will apply for surgery. Then whenever
it will be possible, I will come again and again….. if only you accept me.
Chaaria is such a special place…. So difficult sometimes, now I understand that
most of the time it is not easy.
I tried to observe, learn and fit as much
as possible.
This is how I understand working and
helping in a place that is not my own.
Probably I should finish this letter and go
to sleep; it is already 2:20am and I have still not packed mu luggage, but I
will do it tomorrow.
I hope we still keep in touch and I hope
that in future I will learn from you more and more.
I promise that I will pray for Chaaria and
for you.
Thank you and see you soon
One more time: all the best and May God bless you!
Ela
