Wrapping it Up with Dr. Bdour

Dr. Muawyah Bdour is the dean of the Jordan University Medical School in Amman.  We met him earlier this year when we were working on the diabetic retinopathy project.  The project is on hold for now, but we are still friends with Dr. Bdour.  This week we invited him to come to the LDS Charities office for an update and to thank him for his assistance.
It was one of those "courtesy" meetings that turned out to be much more than we had expected.  Dr. Bdour told us about an organization here in Jordan that we can partner with in the area of diabetes and eye care.  The group is under the patronage of Princess Aisha.  He set up a meeting for us to meet the administrator and offered to go with us.  We never have expected that!  Needless to say, we were very grateful and amazed at how the Spirit leads us to the places we need to go and the people we need to meet.
