Скачать или смотреть Dallen's Story - Canvasback Missions

Dallen Jennet, 14, is just like any kid. He likes to climb trees, play basketball, and make music with his ukulele. But 5 years ago, after scaling a tree with some friends, he tripped and fell face-first onto a live wire. With flesh burned beyond repair, doctors had to remove his nose and several toes, leaving him with a painful injury. Since then, Dallen has stayed home from school, preferring to spend most of his days within the confines of his yard.

Through partnership with Dr. Tal Dagan (one of our volunteer ENT surgeons), New York Eye and Ear Infirmary of Mt. Sinai, Oxford Performance Materials, Mentor Worldwide LLC, and the Republic of the Marshall Islands Ministry of Health, Canvasback Missions helped Dallen receive a new nose.
