Lasting Impact

Jorge, a patient from last year, returns to volunteer during this year's mission.

In 2012, Jorge came to CAMTA with excruciating hip pain which made it impossible for him to work and earn a living. Unable to afford the surgery, Jorge came to CAMTA for help. After his hip replacement, he diligently kept up with the exercises he was shown by the CAMTA physiotherapists. Today, Jorge is virtually pain free. To show his gratitude to CAMTA, Jorge returned to this year's mission as a volunteer translator.

Jorge translates for physiotherapist Rachel Oates who demonstrates a post surgery exercise to Monica who will have her left hip replaced on Monday.
