Changing lives, one child at a time.

Children's Surgery International is at Hospital CIMA Hermosillo.

So much love in this moment. Six-month-old Jesús is out of surgery and back in his mother’s arms.

When he was brought back to her, she held him close, crying and whispering, “I love you, you are my heart, I am so, so proud of you.”

This is why we do what we do.

Children's Surgery International is at Hospital CIMA Hermosillo.

Nine-year-old Nadine was one of the first children heading into surgery this morning.

Her father and aunt stayed by her side in pre-op, while her brothers are supporting her from the lobby. Nadine's family also brought along a framed photo of her mother, who has passed away, to give her a little extra strength before surgery — she's kept this on her hospital bed with her.

Today, Nadine is receiving a bone graft.

With four OR tables running, five groups of patients will cycle through surgery today. Every child will stay overnight in the hospital and, if all goes as planned, head home tomorrow.

It’s a busy day in Hermosillo — and we can’t wait to share more of the children’s stories with you. ... See MoreSee Less
