One
of the most fulfilling types of surgery for me as a plastic surgeon is the
cleft palate surgery. In the Philippines, there are a lot of babies born with
congenital deformities such as cleft palates. The benefits of a short two
hour operation last a lifetime and makes a big difference in the way these
babies will live their lives. Unfortunately, many of the families these babies
are born to don't have adequate finances to cover expenses, even when plastic
surgeons volunteer to do the operation for free. Fortunately, organizations
such as the Rotary Club of Valenzuela (Rotary International District 3800)
have projects to help finance these babies' operations. Their "Bagong
Pangarap Project" which started this 2005 had Baby Angel Pinoy as their
first cleft palate patient. Indeed, a plastic surgeon's work of healing and
helping gives these babies new hope for the future.
