During the early part of March 2002, Patricia and "The Team" headed down for Costa Rica on the second leg of their missionary trip.   It is during the second trip down that the patients reap the benefits of the efforts and hard work of this team, as can be evidenced by the pictures below

Fairy Tales DO come true....it will happen to you if you believe!
See the miraculous first steps being taken by this courageous young lady after "the Team" made walking possible for her.
 
Fairy Tales and dreams come in all ages and sizes.   Even at the advanced age of 100+, the patients dream, wish and miracles happen
Personal help comes in all shapes and sizes.   There's all types of help needed as you can see.
 This man  with the pepsodent smile is the owner of Wilmington Orthotics and Prosthetics, Inc.  A very generous soul.  He not only supplies most of the prosthesis but also pays the way for his technician to join us.
 
Even the building received some construction and cosmetic work.

The "building" is actually the only home for the elderly in Golfito.  They have 26 patients.
We painted, redid 6 of their bathrooms: toilets, sinks, plumbing and hot showers, and bought them all new pillows.  

With a little help from our friends we can finally take steps
Some minor adjustments are needed before the big steps are taken
