Steve Podborski???

Today I met Steve Podborski...I think that is how you say it. He is a former down hill ski racer for Canada and olympic medalist. Pretty neat! The clinic is getting busier everyday. Communication is a real challenge when working with so many different countries. We are using interpreters on an every other patient basis. Tomorrow they will be moving me out of the village and into the Westin hotel to make room for athletes. I will not be sad to move out of my little prison cell. At the Westin every room has a balcony with a hot tub...yeah! All of the medical staff will be housed there. Everyday in the Whistler village there are concerts and shows. Last night I watched ski jumpers skiing through hoops of fire.
