Words from Cydcor's Operation Smile medical mission volunteer, Yesi: "Simply amazing. Words can't describe what I feel right now. I am impressed by the courage and strength these kids have. I was very touched by Paulina's story, an 11 year old who traveled with her brother from far away in hopes of getting the surgery that would restore her smile. I can't imagine everything going through Paulina's head; first time out of her village, seeing a big city for the first time, not being able to understand anyone but her brother since they speak a native language. She must have been so scared. Being in the operating room with her was an experience I'll never forget. Seeing her profile change before my eyes was unlike anything I've ever seen. The most incredible moment was seeing her look at herself for the first time. She was in shock, almost confused. A few minutes later, you could see tears rolling down her cheeks. I could not stop crying, I will remember that moment forever. I hope she smiles brighter after this because she will be in my heart forever." ๐ #operationsmile #medicalmission #changinglives #cydcor ift.tt/2m0S7KB
