Day 2!!!
By jmarshall
Hello World!!! My Name is Stephanie C. AKA "Redd" and I'm from San Antonio, TX and I will be your flight director for the evening. Today was a very full, very fun day at clinic (big shock, which day isn't totally amazing? ha ha)!!! We were at Camp ABC today, which is an all girls camp. All the girls were pre-teens and teens so a few freak outs at the tonometer which is never unusual but always good for a laugh or two. HeeHee...We saw a total of 210 girls and they put on a show for us at lunch time and it was also nerd day in honor of our team being there to give the gift of sight to the campers. There was an awesome lake that we could all see from Eyeleen and the pre-test area and it was so tempting to jump into the water in the heat we were working in. One of the things that makes this experience so amazing for all of us is that you have the chance to give back to those in need and these kids are so amazing. The past two days have been so much fun and busy and crazy and amazing that these memories are memories that you will remember till forever and ever. The stories we tell to our friends and family are always going to be stories that will make us smile and think of the times we had giving back to those in need and are very deserving of this amazing program that puts so many smiles on so many faces all around the world. The team we have assembled here starting from our fearless leaders to our lab peeps, we run like a very well oiled machine and i do believe the days to come will be without a doubt awesome and we have a big day ahead of us tomorrow, another 200 kiddos. Another gigantic shout-out to those who came out from Top Con, SGH and everywhere else for all your help and dedication!!! You all rock!!!!! See y'all later! Bye for now. More stuff to come in the coming days. Whoop Whoop!!!
