Two PETs given to disabled in Thailand on July 4th“Here are photos of 2 new PET cart recipients. The lady is a polio survivor who lives with a deformed right leg and supports herself collecting and selling plastic containers. “The PET cart recipient male was given an injection at the local hospital to relieve pain and this was the result. He can walk a few steps at a time, but barely. Since we have no malpractice patient recovery in Thailand, he has remained at home for 2 years until the PET cart arrived on July 4th American Independence Day. Warm regards to all, and many thanks from 2 very appreciative patients.” Foundation To Encourage Disabled Persons Thailand |
PET brings mobility to clock repairman in Vietnam
“Mr Nguyen Van Tuan is 60 years old and lives in Hue. He was a cong hoa soldier and lost his legs on the battle field in 1974. He earns his income by repairing clocks and watches for local customers. He is one of 140 disabled who received a wheel chair in January 2013 with the sponsorship of the D.O.V.E. fund and PET. The wheel chair is very useful for him, it helps him to move around the city, visit his friends, bring clocks and watches to his customers.” |
