Baby Brayan and His Circle of Concern



These health care professionals in Lexington, KY are some of the many people who have donated their time, skills, knowledge and love to our newest cleft patient from Guatemala.
Dr. Carol Cottrill (seated) arranged the donation of surgical care while she and her husband (Tom Rolfes in yellow jacket) donated the remainder of the medical care bills. Rosemary Vance, COTA Executive Director, worked out the details of Brayan's travel and visa. Dr. Henry Vasconez (holding Brayan) donated his surgical skills. As of two days ago, Brayan is home in Guatemala.
