Ashlee and I had our first run-in with Belizean healthcare today. Ashlee has been dealing with a sore back for the last couple of weeks so we began seeking for a place for her to get a check-up. After hearing many recommendations we found a chiropractor right down the road. I went yesterday to make an appointment for Ashlee and this is the dialogue that followed:
(Pulling up to a random house)
Me: Good evening ma'am, is it true that there is a chiropractor at this residence?
Mennonite Woman: Yes, he is my husband.
Me: Is he licensed?
Mennonite Woman: No, but he has many years of experience...?
Me:Well, my wife is having back issues do you think he could possibly help her?
Mennonite Woman: Oh sure, you can make an appointment with him tomorrow. Although, we also work as undertakers so if someone dies your appointment will be canceled..
ONLY IN BELIZE, I COULD NOT MAKE THIS UP. So I returned home and to tell Ashlee this funny story but she decided it was still worth a shot. We went today and I believe that gentleman popped very bone in Ashlee's body. Haha Despite this adventure everything went great and the man seemed like a real professional. Most important: Ashlee is feeling much better!!
