On Tuesday, I got to teach my specialty unit of Women and Autoimmune Diseases. I enjoyed that although it was very hard to hear and understand questions from the junior level students.
That afternoon we picked up the traditional Ghanain dresses we had had made and paid our bill to the International Center.
That evening we went to a professor's house for dinner. Along with our contingent of five Americans, there were 3 Cuban doctors and 2 nurses. We had met one of the nurses earlier in the ICU of a large hospital. Our host wanted us to see a movie of Paul Simon from 1987 called Graceland. It featured several well known African musicians. It would have been interesting to talk to the Cubans and learn more about their health care, but unfortunately, we didn't get a chance.
