Half of mortality in children under five occurs in Africa, a continent where only 10% of the world's children live. The Texas Children’s GlobalHealth Service Corps sends pediatricians to work with local Ministries of Health to care for these forgotten children, and so, Armand and I are moving to Swaziland. Our new kingdom is known for its charm, crafts, game parks and natural beauty, but also for having the highest rates of HIV on the globe and for being the last absolute monarchy in Africa. Our hope is that through this blog, we share the triumphs and heartaches of the next few years. Thank you all for your love and support. We look forward to your thoughts and welcome all of you to our new home. Next stop…..Swaziland!
We'll miss you so! I can't wait to see what you guys get up to over there. Good luck!
