Little did we know when we moved to Jordan that we would be privy to good, reasonably priced medical care. Jordan doesn't have socialized medicine, it's just cheap. Go figure. By far, one of the highlights of life here has been our fantastic OB, Dr. Mashini, pictured here with me and one of the thousands of babies he's helped bring into the world. On a recent visit to check on baby boy #2, we brought G along (our babysitter was sick) to meet him again. They hadn't seen each other since the hospital, and it was a lovely reunion.
As we reflect on the changes that we are facing as we leave Jordan, one of the things/people we will miss the most is this great doctor. He is such a kind man, a thorough and cautious doctor, and a person we genuinely trust. We have been so grateful for him over the past three years and we would both feel a little more settled if he would only pack up and move with us. Thanks for everything Dr. Mashini!
