They had gone there on a medical mission to evaluate, treat and deliver prosthesis for Dominican children in need. I was there as an interpreter. I was so impressed with there dedication and love for their patients. I think organizations like this one deserve all of our support. Please let them keep helping others!! Please don't take them from all of those in need!!

Please help it survive for the sake of all children in the world!

I was the child of low-income parents who wouldn't have been able to afford the medical bills from two major surgeries. I hope that the hospital can remain open to provide other families the same opportunity I was given. It would be a shame to take another resource away from such a depressed area, when the Shriner's Hospital could do so much good for the community.

I firmly believe that the connections between the Shriners Hospital and nearby hospitals like BayState and Mercy help us address the most serious health issues for children in a manner that I do not believe can be duplicated elsewhere.
