Answer
Our work involved blood lab tests that I personally administered. I was most surprised about my own feelings, even when seeing positive results for life-changing illnesses. The relief that washes over when confirming a positive result was strange and felt conflicting. Of course, sickness shouldn't be celebrated, but knowing the people were already affected prior to our outreach, it was relieving to provide life-saving preventative and medical care. The OKB Ghana Experience taught me just how satisfying medical care can be, especially when aiding underserved communities.
