I wonder every day how I got so lucky to cross your path in a tiny town in Guatemala. I wonder how it is that you have so tirelessly supported me through every crazy idea and seemingly unobtainable goal I have put in front of us. I wonder what I would have done without you through these last three years that have felt like they would never end. Thank you for always making me laugh, for being a temporary single parent to our two fat cats, and to holding it together when all I wanted to do was fall apart.

  • Angkor Children's Hospital
    Andrew Emanuel #200419431 Sydney Medical School 2011 Elective Report Angkor Hospital for Children, Siem Reap, Cambodia I spent the second part of my Cambodia elective at the Angkor Hospital for Children (AHC) in Siem Reap. It is a non‐governmental organisation (NGO) paediatric teaching hospital set up by a charity known as “Friends without a Border” (1) and it provides free healthcare to Cambodian children under the age of 16. Most tourists pass through Siem Reap while visiting the famous Angkor Wat temples but remain largely sheltered from the impoverished life that many of the local people live. Despite increasing tourism associated with the temples and its main city, Siem Reap is the third poorest out of 24 provinces in Cambodia. Sadly almost half of the women are completely illiterate, half the children are moderately malnourished and a fifth are severely malnourished. Most of the families live in rural areas (85%) and a third of them survive on less than $1/day. Two thirds of the population has access to safe water however less than a third have adequate sanitation (2). The demographic in Cambodia is also very different with up to 50% of the population under the age of 16 which further highlights the need for quality paediatric healthcare. Improvements in the population’s health are occurring as the country recovers from the devastating genocide carried out by the Khmer Rouge in the 1970’s in which all but 30 of the nation’s doctors were killed. For example – in 2006, 1 in 11 (90/1000) children died before their fifth birthday compared to 1 in 7 (135 per 1000 live births) in 2002.

(Online) 2014 Available: http://www.rrh.org.au A B S T R A C T Context: One of the most isolated areas in South-East Asia is the Tonle Sap Lake region in Cambodia. Scattered throughout the lake are remote fishing villages that are geographically isolated from the rest of the country. Issue: Receiving health care at a clinic or hospital often involves a full day of travel from the Tonle Sap Lake region, which is unaffordable for the vast majority of residents. Intervention: The Lake Clinic (TLC) is a non-government organization established in 2007. In 2008, a ship was built that was designed for transport of a medical team and supplies to provide primary care to the fishing villages. Initially the project started with one team serving seven villages. TLC has since expanded to two full teams serving 19 villages.
