Through Eyes of Love

By Kit Rockey-Swain-Baldwin

This story relates four years in the life of an Illinois woman recently graduated from Purdue University pharmacy school. She leaves her home to fly to a Spanish language school in San Jose, Costa Rica. She is there for four months. LaPaz, Bolivia, is her next stop where she will run a pharmacy in Clinica Americana. She uses many other skills: taking photos of surgeries, works in the office of the nursing school, plays the piano to accompany services at local churches. The high altiplano area near LaPaz gives her the opportunity to see how these people survive with the barest essentials. The women and children tended the sheep and spun the wool into cloth while the men plowed the rocky land with crude wooden plows driven by oxen or horses. Montero, in the jungle area, is where she spent her last year helping an Argentine doctor and two nurses working where there was no medical help for miles. They traveled in an old jeep with their supplies. Her adventures are somewhat comical and at the same time very heart-wrenching.
