Tuesday

Today was a really uplifting and interesting day. We showed up at the hospital and went up to the recovery room to see the patients who underwent surgery yesterday. We gave them going away bags with toys and a before-after picture. We also gave them a camera so they can take pictures in a few weeks when the swelling goes down that they send to us. A local TV station came to interview a few of the patients and their families. One mom broke down crying because she was so happy. It was really neat to see them be that appreciative. In the afternoon we got to see some of the doctors perform their surgeries. It was really interesting. We learned about the procedure and how it all works. It was an entertaining day for us.
