Clinic Day 4 cont'd

"Heute bin ich an der Reihe einige Worte ueber unsere Mission zu schreiben. Aber geht das nur "eingige Worte" ueber meine Eindruecke zu schreiben? NEIN!Man kann nicht beschreiben was in einem vergeht, wenn man mit dem Bus vor dem Klinikgelaende vorfaehrt und 1000 Menschen klatschen!! Das ist ueberwaltigend! Danke das ich an dieser Erfahrung teihaben darf! Danke fuer viele neue Freunde! Danke OneSight!" Michael Heinz, Mannheim, Deutscheland

"Ciao a tutti! Qui sta andando tutto molto bene, L'esperienza e' bellissima ed e' incredibile quanta gente riusciamo ad aiutare, i loro sorrisi a danno l'energia per affrontare queste giornate di duro lavoro. Un saluto speciale al centro di reciclaggio di Agordo." Sonia Brancher, Agordo, Italia

"Onesight Paraguay Mission has been such an amazing experience for me so far. Everyone here and in our team are so friendly. I was actually overwhelmed the first day of clinic seeing the number of patients waiting, but we diligently worked together & I was amazed how fast we were. I was surprised we saw over a thousand patients in about 4 hours! This is definitely an experience of a lifetime!" Dr Tina Do, Huntington Bch, California

1847! Incredibly enough, today was even smoother than yesterday. We ended up seeing over 1847 recipients today. What an amazing feat! There are so many stories and photos, I wish I could show them all here.

One that stands out is about a 9 month old boy with extreme strabismus, and was very shy. Dr. Karri Burresh was able to successfully use her skills to determine that he was a +5.00 hyperope. We were fortunate enough to have found a pair of glasses a team member brought with them, that were small enough to fit him. This was meant to be. When the glasses were put on him, his small face lit up, possibly seeing things clearly for the first time.

We all wish the weekend to quickly be over so we can continue our clinic on Monday. Thanks to everyone who has been following this blog, words cannot describe feelings that we have each and everyday when we read the messages that have been left. Please continue to do so and share the word to others to sign up and follow.
