After 48 hours of writing, 32 profiles of parents with children with hydrocephalus and spina bifida, and a month's worth of work, my ISP is finished. All fifty pages of it are being printed out as I type, at an internet cafe close to where I lived for the past month. Parts of it are well written and emotive of the actual feelings that the parents of the children go through- but more of the work is in a dry research style- the way that I normally write papers. I find this fact disappointing, and plan on going back to change many aspects of the paper during winter break when I can get my friends and family to more properly edit it for a creative voice. Following this, I hope to submit it to as many journals as I can. For now, I still have to create a presentation- which should be able to give more of a voice to the research participants, and write a self criticism. Tomorrow I'm off to Malindi, leaving the place that I've called home for a month, with Paka in tow. Should be fun.
Be home in 8 days!
