    I am a diabetes nurse educator in the Philippines, currently specializing on Diabetic Foot Ulcer. Recently, I've just decided to have a formal training to become a certified Pedorthist. I know that footwear customization can help in wound healing process. A week ago I applied for a scholarship in Robert Palmers MD., Institute of Biomechanics and through the effort of Ms. Pam Haig, they granted me a scholarship worth 3000 USD from the original fee of $4000. I was able to pay $1000 and I am excited to have my formal training on October.Sadly, I just realized that I have no money left to buy for my round trip air ticket from Manila to Indianapois airport. I am now writing this letter to help me in making my dream into reality. Anyone who have a kind heart willing to shoulder my airfare?. I know there's a lot of you who has a big heart in helping people like me. I am willing to make an arrangement to those who are interested. Thank you

    Have you considered petitioning the national health department for a grant. Demonstrating the cost savings quality pedorthic care can mean in regards to expensive wound care treatments may encourage someone in that agency to lend you a hand.

    Best of luck to you. Say hey to Joe and Pam for me.
