Update on Zacapa

Hi, I am pleased to let you all know that our patients arrived  at the clinic on Friday evening ...they were well taken care of by the COTA team.
They had accommodation in a salon and Saturday morning were among the first to be seen. 
We actually had an extra patient turn up at the last
minute....I am not sure if she is going to be operated on but they are doing an ultra sound on Monday to be able to see if it is necessary.

But the other three women are all scheduled to be operated on Monday morning first thing. One is scheduled for 6.30am. and the other two for 8.30am.

Sergio, the Mayan Families staff member who is accompanying the patients called to tell me the arrangements. He said the line was now very long
outside the hospital with people hoping to be seen.  I am sure the team will be very busy.

The doctor also confirmed the diagnosis of cancer for Creencia ....lets hope that there will be some good news for her after this operation.  As soon as I hear anything, I will let you know.

Thank you to everyone who has made this possible.  We are so fortunate to have you all behind us to make these miracles happen!  It really is a group effort!
