Why did Mary decide to work in developing countries? When Mary worked in a clinic in Malawi, why did the children die? In Sudan, why was it nearly impossible for Mary to get to the clinics when the rains came? Why were conditions in the clinics in th Sudan challenging? What was one of the effects of Mary’s experiences on her?

1.Because when she worked in an African health clinic, she saw children with illnesses that could be prevented.

2.Because they didn’t have enough medicines.

3. Because the roads became so muddy that they spent most of their days digging the car out.

4.Because it could be very hot; it could be nearly impossible to get into the clinics when it rained; the clinics were very basic and the only tools she had were a stethoscope and her hands.

5.She now enjoys this kind of life and what other people have to go through.
