Research taking off

This week has been much about getting ready for our major step; interviewing and data collection. Sarah, Hala and I had a good time doing mock interviews, making the long questionare fun and more importantly understandable when asked to the mothers of patients we have already started interviewing.

Making a ton of phone calls, reading literature reviews and getting paper work ready will pay off next week when we start our quest to meet the kind mothers and interview them. I personally am looking forward to traveling to Jenin and Hebron to do the research. We also will be holding interviews at the PCS center in Ramallah, and I will be holding a few in Nablus as well. Next week is not only it going to -hopefully- be a productive week, but the amount of learning and great experiences we are going to have is rather exciting. I am looking forward to learning from these wonderful mothers who try to do anything and everything to help their children, and also to be of help for others by willing to participate in our research.
