Two neo-natal intensive care nurses from Children's Hospital of Central California traveled to the southeast asian country of Nepal. They spent nearly a month assisting in the opening of an NICU at hospital there. The nurses say it was an amazing experience and gratifying to help save tiny babies that might not otherwise have survived.

Investing their own vacation time and paying their own expenses to travel to Nepal and share their knowledge with this country to give these tiny babies a fighting chance at life! WOW! Training the Nepali people to become NICU capable is a wonderful, incredible gift by these women. This hospital should be very proud of their nurses. I would hold them in high esteem next to "Saintly" for their achievements. Hats off and God bless them in their lives.

These two nurses among others that went to Nepal are outstanding in their own right. It is phenomenal that they are carrying their intimate knowledge of saving babies to help other areas of the world.
