(Right)Patricia's mom were braiding her hair while Sylvienne looked quietly, perhaps thinking about her own mother back home. Now that Sylvienne hasa brand new look, she probably can't wait to show her family!
The two girls have been in Taiwan for two months since 5/28 for medical treatment, and they have gained some weight.
7/29(Fri.) - Patricia had her stiches removed.
Patricia returned to the plastic surgery department in the Linkou Chang Gung Memorial Hospital to have her stiches removed on her right hand. Dr. Hu said that her left hand has completely recovered and rehabilitation is no longer required. Dr. Hu also said that she can start the rehabilitation treatment after her right hand recovers.

7/30(Sat.) - Iced Tea Day
TRMPC volunteer Elaine Chin brought handmade drinks again to visit. It was dinner time, and they were cooking "Chadian" pasta! The Chadian women not only have crafty hands but are also creative cooks!
Day 10 after surgery: Sylvienne's upper lip was not as swollen.
The daily massage was very effective and conducive to Sylvienne's recovery.
