Bamako, Mali - Bonnie MacEvoy, anesthesiologist: One day the phone rang and the lady at the desk said there was a man here to see me. I went downstairs to the lobby, and it was a patient from two years ago. He had a photo of him after his operation, and asked me about each care-giver in the photo. He had had his lip repaired by Roberto and was quite happy with the result. I think he had a tumor on his lip, was a professor of history, and a very sweet middle-aged man. Anyway, he got to see myself, Scott and Jacques, and I told him the rest of the team was not here this year. But we will let them know! It's always nice to be able to receive a patient's gratitude.
