The Return of Sister Maria Teresa

/in /by CAMTA

Sister Maria Teresa is a 75 year old Nun who first met the CAMTA team in 2014. She was one of the eldest patients approved for a total hip replacement throughout the past ten years of missions. She has returned this year to have her other hip replaced.

Sister Maria with friend, Sister Dolly, in the clinic on Day 1 of the Mission. She was very hopeful of being approved to have her second total hip replacement.
On Day 3, Sister Maria discussed with General Volunteer, Ian Stefanuk, how excited she was for her surgery which successfully occurred this morning.
Translator Francisco Gallardo, Adult Ward Nurses Judy Chaffee and Kayla Strickland and Adult Recovery Room Nurse Faisal Kassam help to transfer Sister Maria after her operation.
Sister Maria and Sister Dolly smile for the camera. Sister Maria walked hours after her surgery and was very grateful to the CAMTA team for the work that they do for those less fortunate.
