When Jose's parents heard (via our wonderful translator Stanley) that Jose was going to be able to have his surgery, they were overjoyed. Maria, Jose's mother, dressed Jose's two little brother's up in their best clothing (recently donated from the U.S.) and had a neighbor who owns a camera take this photo for Jose to take to the hospital. Jose has not seen his siblings or his parents since he arrived in the states on August 27th of last year.
Jose is in New York City as I write this. His injection procedure into his facial AV malformation is at 7 AM Wednesday morning, and surgery is scheduled for Thursday morning. We are very grateful to Midwest Airlines for the donation of tickets for Jose and his foster parents, Margaret and Scott.
Thanks to our amazing donors, the $18,700 was wired to Roosevelt Hospital today at 1:00. Jose is fortunate to have such generous donors. Thank you ALL and I will keep the blog updated at the week progresses.
