MBM Ch.23

What I took from this chapter was that Paul Farmer is someone who always keeps his composure, even amidst more difficulty. As if dealing with the issues in Haiti and Peru weren't enough, Paul Farmer in this chapter demonstrates his capability in being able to take on any challenges willingly: in this case, Russia and it's worsened state of MDR-TB. Interestingly enough it's as if everyone around him has developed this same drive within themselves, I'm positive that there wasn't a single person who complained or acted like they weren't going to be able to handle the business in Russia on top of all the other needs that need to be attended to. Kidder also demonstrated Farmer's kindness and compassion at it's fullest, so far, in this chapter. Demonstrating how Farmer is blind when it comes to a person's history or or features how in his eyes he sees patients in need, and his unending ability to prioritize his patients before himself.
