Sue and Sreymom unpacking the wonderful treasure-trove of supplies. The sardines to the left are not part of this - that's 3 weeks supply for my con-artist cat.
Maggie arrived on Sunday, together with 9 Aussie compatriots. They are a medical team, about to head out to the provinces for two weeks. In the months (literally) prior to arriving, Maggie sent us many emails, asking us for a wish-list and clarifying what was do-able.
Today, Maggie came visiting with enough goodies to make Sue smile broadly. There were four pressure-cushions for wheelchair patients. They are the real McKoy, at a minimum of $900 a pop. There are wound-care dressings galore. A steriliser unit. Sue had lost a pair of surgical scissors. Maggie brought 100! There are three specialist pressure mattresses to be shipped here, donated from somewhere. All amazing stuff and all a huge, huge blessing to us and the many people who will benefit in the future.
