    A group of volunteers from US came to JFK hospital two weeks ago,They came from Waterbury hospital,Connecticut state,including 3 general surgeons(Dr.Knight,Dr.Peters,Dr.Nunoo).They worked at JFK for 2weeks,did so many operations for patients.It was very important and honorable that they payed all fees for patients.

   They worked very hard from 8am to 5pm every day.They brought many surgical materials from US,including various kinds of sutures,tapes,dressings,even staplers.What I interested was a kind of absorbable dressing which could be used for infectious wound.They did many operations every day,such as inquinal hernia,epigastric hernia,decommission,lipoma,breast cancer,appendicitis.Dr.Kight is an experienced general surgeon,he completed a rectal anastomosis with stapler.And he did some pediatric operations such as inguinal hernia,umbilical hernia.During these operations,he wore a pair of loupes which I was interested.

   Dr.Kight told me that most surgeons in US have loupes to help them during operaions,especially pediatric and plastic surgeons.He is the president of Loupes Around The World.He establish this foundation in 2007. The objective of the foundation is to provide loupes to surgeons in developing countries who do not have the means to obtain them. They also developed a recycling program ("Recoup The Loupes") through which surgeons are able to donate their old loupes, and the parts are then used to create new loupes for their designated surgeons at a significantly reduced cost.

   Dr.Nunoo is an US doctor from Ghana.He made a lecture about burning one morning.He told me someone used papaya to treat burns.Dr.Nunoo has a smart daughter.I added him as friend in Facebook.

   Thank you,my friends,I’ll miss you.We’ll communicate in Facebook.
