Merci Naomi

My beautiful, wonderful, cultured friend Naomi was in this weekend. I know her from Nashville, but she is of Guyanese heritage and hails originally from Montreal. Yeah, she's incredible and it's so fun when she slips into her first language of French. What fun. We had a great time eating every persuasion of great food, and she helped me through my first Dim Sum experience. She's also a public health junkie like myself, and it was great to bounce professional plans off of a fellow Christian and someone 'in the NGO/CDC/MPH know'. We are going to open up clinics all over the world; she'll be Naomi Prashad MD, ACNP, MPH, RN by then... my letters are still to be determined! (the least the GRE is over) Anyone is welcome to join in our hematological efforts. Plan now for the National AIDS conference Mexico City 2008. Aside from our plans to save the world, we took a little time to have some fun... The entrance to the caves at Rutherford Winery

Our slogan. This silhouette is a part of a huge mural in the 'Mission' district. They have streets of walls just painted to the max with political/humanitarian/activist work.
Nai and her pirate friend down on Fisherman's Wharf. We saw Pirates everywhere this weekend. Random. Nai's camera is better, so she has a lot of the GREAT pictures; I'll share them with you later. Nai, your visit was such a blessing!
