My Tho, Vietnam - Here is Minh Man on the left, in the ward the morning after surgery. He is feeling well and and even has some new friends, who also received new hands thanks to Interplast! The patients certainly develop a sense of community while waiting, sometimes days, in the hospital before and after surgery - we are amazed at how friendly everyone is and how well everyone has gotten to know one another while here. The Vietnamese truly keep good spirits though difficult times.
