Parasailing in Hawaii

While in Hawaii on vacation, my daughter Chriselle, her friend Kira and I all went parasailing!  Here are some pictures from our sail - it was great!  I can't wait to do it again some time!

Maui Wedding

I was thrilled to attend the beautiful wedding of my niece Alisa.  Alisa was married to Michael Groth in beautiful Maui, Hawaii.  My daughter Chriselle and I made a vacation out of the trip and we had a great time! 

Congratulations Alisa and Michael!

Project C.U.R.E. Assessment in Bolivia

Every time I do an medical assessment for Project C.U.R.E. in a foreign country I'm reminded again and again how lucky we all are here in the United States.  If we need an appointment to see the doctor, we call them up on the phone, and schedule our appointment, done in five minutes or less.  In Bolivia, town folk wait in line for hours just to make an appointment to see the doctor.  Hours.  They still have to come back and wait in line again later on the day and time of their appointment.

We think our emergency waiting rooms are crowded?  They are nothing compared to the clinic in Bolivia I visited.  10 or move people deep, people wait hours just to be seen.  If they had an emergency in the waiting room, chances are, they may not make it.  It's awful, it's sad, and it makes me want to help.

Project C.U.R.E. sends me to these hospitals and clinics all around the world so that I can help determine what medical supplies they need.  To find out what we can do to try and make these conditions a little bit better.  I'm lucky to be involved in such an amazing institution that wants to make things better. 

Here are some photos from my visit to their clinic.

Meat Market in Bolivia

While in Bolivia, I visited a local meat market.  Places like these are my favorite, it gives an inside look at what their local customs are like.  Enjoy these pictures!

Books for Children in Bolivia

On my way to visit a school in Colombia, I made a quick pit stop at a market.  I bought over 200 little notebooks to bring to the children.  They loved them!
