I just love Gabriel. He is one of our clinic workers. He has great English is always willing to translate for me. Gabriel is a hard worker and very respectful. One of the funny things about Gabriel is his impression of certain English words. Often we (including Amy and our Kenyan staff) laugh about how different words are pronounced. We like to make the Kenyans say “generator” with an American accent. Amy told me to ask Gabriel to say “heard” the way he thinks Americans say it. I was not disappointed when he said it for me. I cracked up when he said “ I hurrrrrrrrd you” and really emphasized the “r.” He reminded me of a Sudanese cowboy!
