2004 Mission
(click on a picture to enlarge)
The Haiti Medical Mission Team had another great return surgical trip to Pignon, Haiti.
The team of 18 performed 40-operations, including many children with cleft lip and palates along with pediatric burn cases.
The Fargo-Moorhead team got out before the unrest started in Northern Haiti. We all hope and pray those in the village remain safe and free from violence. We also hope the hospital is spared from any problems.
A highlight this year was the chance to see Tchale [The Story of Tchale: Burn Victim]. She is the young girl we airlifted out in 2003 because of life threatening burns. As the pictures show, she has made a remarkable recovery. The Shriner's Burn Center in Texas did a great job of skin grafting. She is alive today because of that.
We have many new and awesome photos from the 2004 trip. Hope you can view them.
