He recently was in the hospital from Chemo, radiation combo that knocked him out. My brother was discharged with suggestion that he go on hospice (metastasis to his liver and lungs). Since he's (patient) in good health otherwise and has two young kids (10 and 8), he (patient) has chosen to continue fighting and figuring out if there are options for him. Gradually he's gotten some strength back. We are seeking a RN, LPN, LVN or CNA who can spend nights and occasionally stay throughout the day as needed. This person needs to be very compassionate and caring but also very firm with my brother (the patient) as he is stubborn. Example, patient ended up in hospital when the caretaker wasn't their because he my brother (patient) wasn't drinking enough water and his blood pressure dropped. My brother is seeking that the RN, LPN, LVN or CNA to be very persistent when it comes to important things on keeping him as well as possible so that his body can be in good condition to fight the cancer if possible.

· We are visitors in this country and guests at the school. · We are ALWAYS representing the United States; let’s make sure we are setting a good example. · The children look up to us, admire us and will want to imitate us. While on school grounds there is NO SMOKING and we need to be careful of what we say and our facial expressions ~ we do not want to offend them or hurt their feelings. · The children LOVE having their picture taken but, when we are not at the school, we are not at the zoo. Please be courteous of people’s feelings ~ ask before you snap…and if they say ‘no’, then please respect that. · This is the hard one ~ please refrain from handing out things ~ it promotes the beggar mentality we are fighting so hard to break and it can cause a huge disruption at the school and a mob on the street. · It’s a long trip, not everyone travels the same…be considerate of everyone…I promise, you’re not the only one who’s tired!! J · Communicate ~ if you don’t feel well, let someone know, keeping it a secret does no one any good! · Enjoy yourself!!! This can be very heavy emotionally, but remember, you are changing these children’s lives for the better…and they yours.
Thank you for being here!
HISTORY OF SYLVIA’S CHILDREN
Sylvia Allen, President of Allen Consulting, was quite content teaching at New York University, traveling around the world doing motivational seminars and running her public relations and marketing business in Holmdel, NJ. Having taught in China, India, Ireland, Japan, Okinawa, Iceland, Canada and throughout most of the United States, she was sure that was how the rest of her life would play out. Little did she know that a trip to Uganda, Africa in 2003 would totally change her life! Fourteen years ago Sylvia was invited to Uganda, Africa by one of her NYU students. While there she was invited by the children of the Mbiriizi Advanced Primary and Day Care School, to be their grandmother. She took the request seriously and upon returning to the United States she formed Sylvia’s Children, a 501(c)3 organization under United States IRS code. The school has grown dramatically in the last ten years … going from 439 children (of which 136 were orphans) to 1,012 (of which 250 are orphans). The school is based on the British model and starts with baby class, moves up to top class, and then P-1 to P-7. We are creating a series of African entrepreneurship businesses that will allow the school to be self-sustaining and allow Sylvia’s Children to take this model and replicate it in another village.
In the 14 years we have been with the school all of our children have taken their P-7 exams and graduated. If they are sponsored orphans we have asked their sponsors to continue working with them at the next level … S-1 to S-6. We currently have 150 orphans in S-1 through S-6 plus 50 in college and technical schools and will continue with our orphan support as the others graduate.
“This experience has changed my life … for the better. I have learned to love and be loved, to give and to receive graciously, and to know that I can make a difference in a child’s life. I also have the joy of my children being part of organization. All else pales in comparison.”
We invite you to visit our website … www.sylviaschildren.org, get on our mailing list (just e-mail Sylvia@sylviaschildren.org to get updates), keep up-to-date by visiting http://sylviaschildren.blogspot.com … we’d love to have you experience the same joy we have had in working with these beautiful, loving, caring children who want nothing more than to hold your hand or sit on your lap. Please help us to continue making a difference in these children’s lives.

IMR will return for our fourth visit down the beautiful, world renowned, Amazon River. Brazil is the fifth largest country in the world and takes up nearly half of South America by itself. Brazil is a country of great natural beauty that includes mountains, wetlands, island archipelagos, waterfalls, colonial ports, and some of the world’s most populated cities. Your team will live and work on the Amazon River in the heart of the rainforest. Every moment on the river is a feast for the eyes, from the magnificent sunrises to the magnificent sunsets. You may even see an elusive jaguar or impossibly large anaconda as you survey your surroundings from the bow of the 5-star riverboat you will call home.
About Clinic
The Amazon Region of Brazil has about 23 million people with extremely low density. Don't be fooled by this, however. The river communities already know the dates of the IMR trips in 2016 and are eagerly waiting for you to arrive. The team will see patients with malaria and dengue fever, tinea and scabies, chagas disease, and many different wounds. Malaria, Dengue Fever, Leishmaniasis, Tuberculosis, and Leprosy are major public health concerns in the region but there is also an epidemiological shift occurring with the rise of chronic, non-communicable diseases, personal violence, and alcoholism. IMR brings significant value to these patients by providing education on hypertension, diabetes, smoking, and sexually transmitted diseases in addition to basic hygiene, water storage, sanitation, and mosquito/insect control. On past trips, IMR has seen a wide variety of skin conditions and wounds, including snake and piranha bites, cutaneous leishmaniasis, and many types of fungal infections. Ear infections are common in all ages. Dental care is of primary importance along the river and your team will provide oral health education, fluoride, and acute dental care to every patient in your care. You will be provided with extensive public health information to help you provide the best care possible for your patients, including statistics from past IMR teams. The remote river communities will welcome your team with open arms, a plea for care, and a friendly “obrigado” (Portuguese for “thank you”) upon your departure.
Lodging
You and your team will live on a five star, world-class boat and set up a full medical and dental clinic in remote villages along the water’s edge. Without IMR, these villages have no other means of healthcare. Upon returning to your private riverboat each night, you will be welcomed with a feast of local cuisine and opportunities for stargazing, crocodile hunting, hammock swinging, and much, much more. After a dinner of local delicacies and remarkable desserts, the boat will make ready for your departure to the next clinic site while you take a hot shower under the stars and prepare for a wonderful night’s sleep without bugs or cares. Enthusiastic crowds will gather at every stop, and children will peer through every crack as they anxiously wait their turn for care and hugs from the IMR team. Enthusiastic crowds will gather at every stop, and children will peer through every crack as they anxiously wait their turn for care and hugs from the IMR team.
Trip Highlights
Simply being in the Amazon, living on a riverboat, and caring for people with very limited access to care may be enough, but there is still more to see! Your team will spend a day discovering Manaus, including the renowned opera house, Teatro Amazonas (the #1 rated place to visit in Manaus according to TripAdvisor!), the handicrafts market, and the Rio Negro Palace. You will also have the opportunity to explore the rainforest and "hunt" for caimans, explore the villages where you will work, and experience life aboard, steaming up and down the Amazon. Every IMR team member who has "taken the boat" will tell you - this trip is best!!
Extend Your Stay
You certainly don't have to leave Brazil to have the vacation of a lifetime. From waterfalls to beaches, mountains to deserts, from the 15th century to the 21st century, there is something for everyone in Brazil. Add into the mix 200,000 million of the nicest people you will ever meet, and some of whom you did meet during clinic,and you have the perfect place to extend your stay. Visit Pelourinho, a 16th century city, climb Sugarloaf Mountain to see Rio de Janeiro from a whole new perspective, learn a little Capoerira, a Brazilian martial art using art and music and requiring tremendous upper body strength (you are IMR, you can do it!!), or the Tujuca Forest in the middle of Rio, or the Museu de Arte in Sao Paulo. Not matter which direction you go in, there is something amazing to do in Brazil! The IMR office can help you extend your stay, so give them a call!
Vietnam is a Southeast Asian country on the South China Sea known for its beaches, rivers, Buddhist pagodas, and bustling cities. Fishing is one of the major contributors to large workforce employment. Major employers include a highly diversified group of industrial manufacturers (i.e. machinery, chemicals, textiles, bricks, fertilizer). Most of these businesses are state-owned. You will see an extensive amount of new construction as you travel from your home base out to the small villages each day. Recently, tourism has played a major role in the economy of the area.
About Clinic
Your team will focus on acute medical and dental needs and health education. As with every IMR team, your team will provide classes on hand washing, oral hygiene, purification and storage of drinking water, family planning, safe sexual practices, choking, and stretching/pain management. Individual patients also receive extensive education focusing on prevention from their provider, based on their current and chronic medical conditions.
Lodging
The team will stay in modest, comfortable accommodations. The South Central Coast is known for cooking the strongest and boldest flavor foods available in Vietnam, including mì quảng (rice noodles with turmeric and fish or meat), bún chả cá (fish ball noodle soup), bún mắm (seafood gumbo), cánh gà chiên mắm (fried chicken wings in fish sauce), and mít trộn (a salad mixed with jackfruit and pork rind).
Trip Highlights
You will have the opportunity to see some of the most famous historical sites in the area and enjoy the excitement of the local markets. We will determine the itinerary for your cultural day soon-- there is so much to see and do! One of the most famous sites is Mỹ Sơn, an archaeological site dating back more than a thousand years, in Quảng Nam. Located in a remote forested valley, this former capital and religious center of the Champa kingdom once contained in excess of 70 style temples and stupas. Although badly damaged by bombing raids in the 1960s, the site still has more than 20 structures and was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1999. Many statues, sculptures and reliefs recovered from Mỹ Sơn are kept in the Museum of Cham Sculpture, near the Hàn River. Dating from the fourth to the 14th centuries, the sensual artwork on these works depicts daily activities as well as Hindu and Buddhist religious themes. The local market offers a wide variety of goods sold by many different vendors, including clothing, silk, jewelry, flowers, and foodstuffs such as dried fruit and fish, plus coffee, tea, and wine.
Extend Your Stay
Thinking about extending your stay? IMR can help you plan the trip of a lifetime. Contact the office to discuss your extended stay! If you’re interested in touring the rest of Vietnam, take a trek-- think plunging highland valleys, tiers of rice paddies, and soaring limestone mountains. Go to the Sunday market at Bac Ha and revel in the local flavors. Visit Sapa in the Muong Hoa Valley and stay overnight at the Topas Ecolodge. Love mountain biking? Cat Tien National Park in South Vietnam is your place! There is truly a surprise in every corner of Vietnam and a UNESCO World Heritage Sites almost everywhere you look. Want to travel further afield? Laos, China, and Cambodia are neighbors. Go say hello!
