I am a long time Pearl Jam fan and realize the commitment most fans have to sharing their good fortune (not money, per se) with others. If any of you are nurses (RN or LPN-- could even use a CNA or two at times), nurse anesthetists, anesthesiologists, instrument techs, scrub techs or just someone who is fluent in SPANISH and wants to help out, there is a "mission team" that regularly goes to Nicaragua, the second poorest country in the Western hemisphere, to provide surgical services FREE OF CHARGE to the poor in Chinandega, the fourth largest city in the country.

The next trip is August 22-30th but there are others twice annually. If you feel you might be interested, let me know. The area is safe for travel at this writing. You must have a license, a passport and a willingness to work as a team. If you yourself do not possess this skill set, but know someone who does and is willing to help out, let me know.

The mission hospital is on a monastery grounds, but there are no formal religious affiliations nor requirements. (Yes, we drink beer.)

Thanks,
LM Smith, M.D.
