We are home from our trip to Vietnam and it was wonderful. There is so much to tell about the trip, but we are now in Northern California until after Thanksgiving, so the trip details and pics may be slow in coming. I just wanted to share this news clip taken during our trip:
Vietnam CardioStart Heart Mission Video
David had a chance to be interviewed and after attempting to answer the reporter's questions in English and being reprimanded (lovingly) by his translator for giving long answers he did the interview in Vietnamese. I still laugh every time I hear him start speaking Vietnamese because it is just so, so different than English. I tried to pick up a few words while there, but it's pathetic when I can't even say the patient's name correctly and David has to quietly inform me that I am calling the patient, a 21 year old male, a "boob".

Glad you guys had such an interesting time in Vietnam--what a great experience--you guys are always doing cool stuff! Plan your next trip to Japan!!
Wow! Things you learn about people when you read their blogs. David speaks Vietnamese! I am eager to see and hear more about your trip. Happy Thanksgiving.
I still laugh every time I hear David(Luc) speak Vietnamese. I'm impressed he can still remember it. So you don't feel too bad, I heard David accidentally say a lot worse things than "boob." Good for you to even attempt that goofy language.
Can't wait to hear more about your trip and see some photos. Glad your back and all is well. I'm impressed with David's skills. Had to pass it along to my Dad ... he loves the fact that David is one of Westwoods best ;)
Wow that was so cool! Make sure to post pictures. Props to David on that interview.
Where did David learn Vietnamese? What an awesome experience. I'm glad you guys are back safe.
