Maylin comes to KY

Maylin was one of our Team 2010 patients who needed extra medical support following her surgery in January for a club foot repair. With the generous donation of a free airline ticket from American Airlines, a volunteer escort from the American Ambassadors Program, and the fast work of COTA Guatemalan volunteer Aida de Carcamo, Maylin was quickly transported to Lexington, KY where she is enjoying the special care of COTA medical volunteers.

Bianca returns home to Guatemala

Bianca was safely returned to her parents in northern Guatemala on January 10th. She had been the fortunate recipient of several sessions of donated sclerotherapy under the direction of her interventional radiologist in northern KY since last summer. The decision was made by her physicians to send her back to Guatemala in order to allow the hemangioma to heal. Although Bianca may need more care in the future, for now she is enjoying the the reunion with her family.
