TRIGEN NAIL SYSTEM PROJECT TOTAL: $30,000
An excerpt from an email received recently:
A few weeks ago, while getting ready for work I heard a familiar
voice over the radio. It was the confident yet reassuring voice of Dr.
Baxter Willis. The same Dr. Baxter Willis that eased my son Tyler's nerves
(as well as mine) before his surgery. Tyler broke his femur June 5, 2006,
and although he was only ten at the time, if there was any opportunity for a
new system that would make the ordeal less painful we would have welcomed
it. Recovery was amazingly fast for Tyler due to his young age but much
credit must be given to Dr. Willis and the staff at CHEO. On closing I would
like say "great job" to you Doc & Woody towards your efforts.
