Ref.: (LML) PERSONAL NOTES ON THE ILC2025 CONGRESS ON BALI AND THE LEPROSY SURGICAL COURSE ON SULAWESI.
From: Wim Theuvenet, Apeldoorn, the Netherlands
Dear colleagues,
In the annex you will find the PERSONAL NOTES ON THE ILC2025 CONGRESS ON BALI AND THE LEPROSY SURGICAL COURSE ON SULAWESI by Wim Theuvenet.
Wim Theuvenet is a plastic, hand and leprosy surgeon. He worked some years in Anandaban Leprosy Hospital near Katmandu in Nepal and has been, especially since his retirement, very active for the Leprosy Mission International in several countries in the world. His main objective is, except of course caring for leprosy patients and for many others with sequelae due to trauma or disease, to teach and train surgeons and other health staff in leprosy surgery and care.
His motivation is (as it is of the Leprosy Mission) that you cannot leave persons affected by leprosy out in the cold, anywhere in the world.
As editors of the LML it is our experience that what Wim describes of the problems and suffering he saw during his travels are not exceptional.
Best regards,
Pieter AM Schreuder
Editor LML.
