Our speaker this night was Van Tran from Vietnam. She is an occupational therapist. She had quite a story of her life in Vietnam. She was from a family of 12, and she contacted polio at the age of six months, and had no medical help for the next 10 years. Finally doctors from Germany came and helped. Her father finally helped to get the family to America.
She and her sister now run an orphanage in central Vietnam serving some 4,000 children.
