Wheelchair Agreement Ceremony

Stake President with Director of Organization that the Church will donate more than a 1000 wheelchairs this year.  Next year as many as 2000 will be donated.  They will be our partner for the next 6-7 years or more.
Our good friend Isabel.  She is the director of foreign relations.


Dr.  Christiansen is developing a vision project with this organization and another in Milagro.  This organization does thousands of  cataract surgeries every year and they don't have a Jag laser.  Throughout the world about a third of people that receive cataract surgery go blind again because the lens turns opaque.  With this laser in about 30 seconds the patient will be able to see again.


Isabel was born in New York but was consul general for Ecuador in Toronto.  She loves Canada.  Maybe because this is where she was finally able to give birth to her only child..  She is holding a Canadian flag and a MacIntosh candy box.
