Christmas

Terry and I in Native Garb
Kids enjoying Christmas Treats
Terry and I certainly had a different Christmas from years past but a very comfortable one.  We attended 8 PM Christmas Eve Mass.  It was a full house and Father carried in Baby Jesus in his arms, played by a baby born by C-section that same day.  We wore our new native dresses given to us by Sister Xaveria.
 
Christmas Day we did our normal Hospital rounds and then returned and delivered candy treats to the nearly 200 patients in the hospital and their families.  We spent additional time in our favorite ward with 8 young children all recovering from leg surgery.  They additionally received balloons made from exam gloves and all got special stickers for their casts.
 
Christmas evening we had an enjoyable dinner with the Sisters.  Terry made 2 trays of Christmas treats which they all enjoyed.
 
We remain thankful for your support of MDA and our mission as this year draws to a close.
