NCF 10th year anniversary Humbled and honored to be invited ❤ ️Gabbie didnt just gave us joy and strength. She gave us humility. She brought us new friends and an extended family. I may not know every volunteer, patient, staff, doctor or everyone behind Noordhoff Craniofacial Foundation Philippines, Inc. , but I am very proud I have known some of them. They are truly inspiring. They will make you feel you can always do something for others, big or small - doesnt matter. They are verrrrry verrrrrrrrrrry warm! Have I told you the story why we chose Dr. Glenda De Villa as our surgeon? Na lagi akong napapaiyak everytime kinekwento ko? We met with her before I gave birth to Gabbie and I was saying I am giving birth to a girl... I said kaya nga mas worried kami kasi girl (meaning mas conscious sya sa physical appearance nya) and she said no, you teach her that beauty is NOT PHYSICAL (signing not in the face) but it comes from HERE (the heart). I really wanted to burst in tears at that time! At that moment we knew, she's gonna be our Gabbie's surgeon. What else would I ask for? I know she is an outstanding surgeon, yes I did my research. I know she came from a family of doctors (surgeons). And i know they are into volunteerism. So gooo na talaga kami! 😊 Being on this journey, nakita at naramdaman namin what cleft patients really need and NCFPI is doing wonders for them!! Right now, we are doing the Smile Dyip - bulacan, bringing patients to our lady of peace hospital in paranaque. Pinupuntahan ko ang mga health center, RHU, pedia, ultrasound, OB clinics, even hospitals to discuss how can NCFPI help and to find cleft cases around bulacan. And wala akong nakausap na hindi na-amaze sa NCFPI.😊 Again, sa may mga kakilala na cleft patients around bulacan, pls PM me At sa mga gustong mag donate o mag sponsor ng surgery, meds etc... Now is a perfect time, they are celebrating their 10th year anniversary ❤️ Please contact Ms. Mel Maranan for donations - 0921 637 1477 My original posts is in our private support grp in facebook: cleft support group philippines
