A Sense of Humor and Adaptability Go a Long Way

It was wonderful to finally read this book after visiting Linnea's clinic a couple of years ago. Her story is fascinating and is one I find myself telling people about. Linnea has a great sense of humor and an amazing ability to adapt to conditions and be creative. Here is a woman who is working hard on adapting to a different culture while being true to herself and saving lives and making lives better in the process.
