The following entry was written by REM Audiologist Ayda Shimelis, Au.D., following her return trip from Ethiopia:
My trip to Ethiopia with Healing the Children for the one week medical mission trip was very successful.
The team included pediatric otolaryngologists, anesthesiologists and audiologists. I was able to work at Cure hospital and for my next mission I am hoping to take more hearing aids (new or used) and new or donated red sweaters (red is the color of the school uniform for the children of Mekania School for the Deaf).
Happy Holidays!
