I spent 5 days with Sedera and his team in the east and south-east of the rainforest. The medical team and the dentist had their hands full during the week. They carried out hundreds of consultations and extracted countless rotten teeth to relieve pain.
In some villages I couldn't find an ideal place to land. I had no alternative and in some cases had to land in the middle of rice fields, which can be problematic in heavy rain. As a team, we prayed that for once it wouldn't rain during the rainy season, and it never became a problem.
