In t-minus 9 days (August 26th) I will be headed to the country of Panama for a week and a half on a humanitarian expedition. It's an LDS based group that works on all the dental work for future missionaries, who can't afford (or don't have the means) to get it all done. This group goes to multiple countries including; Honduras, Guatemala, El Salvador, Nicaragua & Panama. This is their first time to Panama, but what we do is go in and take over a stake center and set it up as a clinic. They do; cavities, cleaning, root canals, wisdom teeth extractions, missionary pictures, missionary haircuts and a few other things. I feel so blessed that I get to experience this, I've been told it will be an experience of a lifetime. I can't wait!
I'll post all about it when I get home.
more details here.

Love that you're doing this. I'm sure you'll make memories to last a lifetime. And now you'll be super empathetic with all the patients who have to have their wisdom teeth removed.
Loved being with you tonight.
Ditto on what Jamie said!!!
