I would like to thank the family and friends who so generously made donations this year and in turn helped me to experience being able to touch so many children and their families lives.
It's amazing how the patient stories resonant so deeply within me. Diana the soccer star, Estaphenie who has lived a tragic life and actually smiled when I discharged her. Amy Mabel, who stole my heart from the minute I saw her, had a huge cleft lip and at discharge clinic just smiled and smiled. They thank us for the work we do...I thank them for the joy and perspective they have given me.
What a pleasure it was when we showed up the first day and I was greeted by 2 young girls I had the privilege of taking care of the year before. They ran up to me and gave me huge hugs of gratitude.
I would like thank every team member...we had one goal...to help as many children as we could...and that goal was far surpassed because of everyones contributions. The comroderie we have built will last a life time.
