Annette & Bill Moon

The autoclave at St Joseph's hospital broke. Since replacement parts were not available, I had to go to the local hardware store, shown in the photo, and buy "parts".

The autoclave was repaired at the hospital. Basically all the electrical parts had to be replaced.
The maternity ward is in the open door behind me.

Elder Moody, one half of the Humanitarian Couple in the DR Congo (and Republic of Congo and Cameroon), and I pose with the finished autoclave makeover product. Please note the new gravity operated door latch. The door stays shut because of a dead weight, made from a heavy lock, that rotates on a gate hinge. We are applying for a patent on it.


We took our 2nd excursion in a year, to Bonobo Park. It is a Bonob0 monkey semi-open reserve about 30 kilometers from Kinshasa. This little water fall is at the park.

Walking at Bonobo Park. Annette is holding Eustache's baby Johann. Eustache is the glue that holds the office together, along with Pascal, and he is in the background.
