OUR PEOPLE, OUR MISSION Global Health eMagazine June 2023 Thank you Philista Written by Arezou Nazary Our Global Health experience would not be remotely as special or memorable without a very special young lady named Philista. Philista is the young woman who helped guide our stay at Naggalama hospital in Uganda. She runs the guest house for all visitors who pass by. Anything we wanted to learn, see, do, eat, Philista was there to help make it a reality. Everyday was a new excursion with her. Philista’s voracious appetite to explore and learn new things was infectious and made our exploration of Uganda one hilarious roller coaster ride we cherish. She didn’t know how to swim yet took the leap to go rafting on the Nile with us! Weekly grocery runs became mini concerts as we played music and sang on the back of boda bodas (motorcycles) under the african sky. She protected and guided us as we made our shopping trips for the Go Fund Me project, making sure her muzungus got value for their buck.

When we were sad over the patient we lost and tears streamed down our faces, she somehow knew exactly what to say to make us start laughing. After countless hours of getting to know just each other’s worlds, hopes and dreams, we knew without a doubt Philista is meant to travel and explore the world. She opened up about her dreams, one of which is to continue her education and finish college majoring in Tourism. Philista is now taking the steps to sign up and continue her education which ultimately would allow her to apply for her dream job, an airline stewardess, and make her dreams of seeing the world a reality. In our last week, we started the process of making sure Philista got her passport and it is indeed in the works!
