Thank you for your help with LWB's Cleft Exchange

Because you bought a hat at Sprout Tops, or you bought a hat for an orphan on our Love Without Boundaries page, you were a part of this wonderful event! So many miraculous things happened and so many children's lives were changed forever. 

Here are some of the sweeties who are wearing Sprout Tops hats!


 

And here is the whole story!

Love Without Boundaries 2014 Cleft Exchange - 30 surgeries, 30 transformations, 30 children's lives changed

Reading these updates every day warmed my heart and broke my heart all at the same time. Thanks again for the part you played in helping these children. 

Getting Ready photos of the kids, thinking back to previous cleft trips

Easter Baby Hunt - finding the babies on the train and getting to snuggle them. 

Easter Sunday - arriving, prepping, pre-op exams, meeting the kids, Robin's story

Monday - first two babies to get surgery, careful mom and tender father, loving nannies, weighing in

Tuesday - the "tens", some have to be turned away, the LWB "love ward", preparing Robin

Wednesday - beautiful repairs, the volunteers get jealous of the nannies getting to hold the babies, Robin's surgery

Thursday - operations, education, the meaning of "cleft exchange", and somebody got a family!

Friday - healing and playing games with the doctors

Saturday - "baby pile" for Dr. Ness's birthday, saying goodbye to the children they love, reality sets in

Transformation: Past, Present, and Future - Read the story about Emily! what a determined little spirit she has.

I hope we get to be a part of this next year!
