Here in the waiting room, I get to play with all my new friends while the doctors take turns screening each one. It is a long day....but the children still manage to smile. Luckily, I brought stickers, coloring books, yo-yos. I am immediately swarmed by adorable, hopeful faces.
This mission is dedicated to the cherished memory of Carly Sigelbaum.
Medical Mission to Santa Marta, Colombia, April 2009
Healing the Children is a non-profit organization that envisions a world where every child has access to medical care. In April 2009, medical personnel from New York travel to Santa Marta, Colombia, to perform surgeries on children in need. I am here to share their stories.
