Suture material

In September 2005 a German medical relief organisation brought 3 large boxes with sutures and suture needles (value 31,000 US$) to the Al-Thawrah Hospital in city of Taiz, Yemen.

The German branch of the Oneness-Heart-Tears and Smiles was happy to provide this relief organisation with the suture material, which is sending specialised German doctors on a regular base to Yemen to operate mainly children for free.

The suture material is used in the first and at the moment only children's medical unit of Yemen, which has been built and set up in the Al-Thawrah Hospital in 2005.
