Blog from Taylor

This is a photo of Taylor with Rosa Carina, who has a cleft palate.
I spent the day at Clinica Caris. We did not have too many patients but I had a pretty special patient. Rosa Carina is a 5-month old with a cleft palate. Her father had heard yesterday that Health Talents offers plastic surgeries of this kind. Although they live far away from Lemoa, they really wanted their baby to be seen. Rosa was a happy baby, until Sheri wanted to look in her mouth. Sheri had some special bottles that had been donated but they were at her house. We ran to her house and brought them back to the family. They were really grateful. Hopefully, Rosa will be scheduled for surgery in August. The family is to return on Monday for a consult with Josefina and more tests to confirm surgery.
