Thanks, Drs. Shumpert!
Drs. Paul and Cindy Shumpert have been passionate advocates and supporters of BMC for decades. Not only do they lead the George Faile Foundation in the US, but they come out regularly to serve at BMC. We are especially thankful for their service because they come during periods when we have the least number of volunteers. For them to give us their Christmas and New Year holiday time with family back home to be here helping patients is such an incredible sacrifice.
