People Continuing to Give

When I was in Montellano with Gaspar and his family, there were other good things happening.  Many dolls were made and brought down by JoLee, who has been working with Health Talents for many years.  These children enjoyed getting a doll when they were close to being discharged.

The children loved the dolls and they brought a smile to their faces.

Thank you JoLee for making the dolls and bringing them down to be distributed!

The beds at Clinica Ezell have been around for a few years. Last year, Health Talents began a bed drive and people donated money to purchase a bed.  The donar was able to have a plate placed on the bed and have it dedicated to someone.

Many of you have met Carol. She is a friend of mine who lives in Chichicastenango and recently retired from working with another clinic, ASELSI.  She accompanied me on a surgical clinic when we were short nurses and she loved her week with us.  She since then has donated her time for several other surgical clinics and purchased a bed.  As you can see, she dedicated it to her aunt and we look forward to Carol being with us in different clinics this year.  Thank you, Carol!

It was exciting to see all of the beds with messages of dedication.  Many know Dennis and Elaine who have worked with Health Talents for many years.

Well, it is time to head back up to Chichi and do a few clinics and some classes.  The Chuchipaca ladies wanted to start classes again this year and we will be having some IVAA and Pap clinics.
