This is Dr. Anson Call and his wife Kathy being honored for their part in the vision clinic here at the Mahosot Hospital. We were really busy helping with this.

Elder Kyle Wright and a happy patient. She giggled as I walked her over to be fitted with reading glasses. I wonder if she had ever talked to Americans before. She she was really delightful.

We couldn't have done it without our Branch members' translation skills. This is David Burton from Eye Care 4 Kids and his two helpers: Puy and her sister Puy. I'm not kidding. You say one Puy with a different voice inflection than the other. I love these girls.

The whole Eye Care 4 Kids crew and the Forbes family fundraisers and Chandy who brought us such delicious lunches.

We dispensed almost 2,000 pairs of eyeglasses in four days.That is Elder Johnson in the back. 

Have you ever seen a finer bunch of nurses? They were there to have their eyes checked, too.

The chair next to me dropped me to the floor when it broke. 

This is the head nurse with her able assistant.  A laugh a minute, this one.

This is Joseph Carbon of Eye Care 4 Kids hard at work. His able assistant Elder Murray.

E. and S. Singley, E. Murray, E. Johnson, E. Xiong, E. Wright,     S. and E.  Jorgensen

You can see Dr. Anson Call, here on the far left, training hospital staff in Occular Surgery. He also performed surgeries at the hospital each day. We rarely saw him, he was so busy. His wife worked by his side through the day, every day.

Everyone worked so hard and we loved it.
"Every Mose was on his toes. This joint was really jumpin'!"
