The “Gift Of Life” For Children

Recently, I received a desperate email from a 24 year-old patient in Trinidad. After having [1] aortic valve replacement as a young child, she needs a re-operation as her replacement valve is now failing.
In the process of trying to find her access to the appropriate medical care, I learned about the [2] Gift Of Life International program for children requiring open heart surgery. The Gift Of Life has helped over 9,420 children during the last 30 years.
If you have not heard of this program, it is extraordinary. If you like, please click the link above to learn more about this wonderful endeavor.
Keep on tickin,
