Last week, Bob Jensen, who leads our signature international service project each year in Guaymas, Mexico, announced he had received some alarming news. Paco, the principal at the CAM school where we have our Ayudame a Escuchar clinic in Guaymas each year had notified him there had been a break-in at the school where our clinic is held. The intruders had entered the building including the testing booth where the equipment and supplies used in our annual clinic were stored. About 10:30 Friday, February 7, Bob received another call with very good news. He had feared that the 80 hearing aids which had intentionally been left there last November might have been taken. Paco was able to let him know the hearing aids had been located.
Bob has an employee, Rodolfo, who is from Alamos. Rodolfo will be travelling to Mexico soon to see the thirteen patients that the team was unable to help during the November 2019 Gift of Hearing clinic. Bob is developing a list of inventory for Rodolfo to check while there hoping nothing else is missing.
