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.

Project C.U.R.E. Trip to Bolivia May 2014

I just returned from Santa Cruz, Bolivia where I did a medical assessment for Project C.U.R.E. While there, I enjoyed speaking to the families of many children at two different schools. I spoke to them about Project C.U.R.E. and what we do. Before I left for Bolivia, I accumulated over 40 pounds of clothing for the children there. The clothing was sorted by teachers at the school and passed out to the poorest of the families. I enjoyed watching them sort through the clothing. They were very excited!
