   Hi Brenda,

   It’s really heartwarming to read about these life changing miracles. Thank you for sharing these stories. May God continue to bless the hands and the medical and non medical community that brings this joy into lives all over the world.
   I met a 7 year old that has exactly Maurinho’s condition – Blount disease and I gathered that by the time she reaches age 10 it gets more complicated as a girl. She is in West Africa. Is there any help or hospital that you have established in the countries you have visited or going to visit that can help with this condition?
   Please help ??????.
   God bless

     Hi Tinu,
     Thank you for your message. We don’t establish hospitals in countries as all our work is carried out on board our surgical ship. Please feel free to email me on: info.zaf@mercyships.org giving me the location of where in West Africa this young girl lives. Kind Regards, Brenda
