Featured Photo: A visit to the Precarpathian Clinical Oncology Center in Ivan-Frankivsk, Ukraine where various items were donated to help furnish their new radiological center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the summer\u2019s visit we went to the Regional Oncology Hospital (see this link https:\/\/www.kachelman.com\/ukraine\/blog\/2024\/07\/11\/summer-trip-report-4\/<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We arranged to purchase the requested items and these were delivered and in place as the new radiology wing opened. We were invited to visit and see the items purchased. We were also shown a plaque that will be posted in the main corridor saying \u201cThank you Churches of Christ for helping us.\u201d Over 1,000 patients per week will pass by that plaque! We were told by the Hospital Director and the Radiation Oncologist that this plaque will be viewed by many and they hope it will inspire those viewing it to follow our example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Posted on the hospital\u2019s internet sites was this message:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
