Patients           give us your comments  

 

Each patient seen on the mission will be followed here. In some cases, out of respect for family wishes, only first names may be used, or patient information may be limited. You can discuss patients or the treatment via e mail or on the discussion page.

The mission schedule for the week was established during assessments Friday, March 31. Each day, we'll post the proposed schedule of surgeries and choose one or two cases to follow on line.

The patients are identified by first name only and a general description of their surgery is provided. While these schedules are confirmed each morning, some cases get canceled due to the patient having a fever, or eating when they are not supposed to. Also, each day, some cases may be added due to patient condition or other factors.

To follow a surgery, click the highlighted patient name or photo of that patient.

NOTE: Some of the images are taken during surgery and may contain graphic images.
