00:00.340 --> 00:04.340
I had a tooth extracted . I

00:04.340 --> 00:06.562
had another tooth that I thought needed

00:06.562 --> 00:09.060
to be extracted And they restored that

00:09.060 --> 00:11.970
won the innovative readiness training

00:11.970 --> 00:13.803
taking place in central Delaware

00:13.803 --> 00:15.803
provides no cost health care to the

00:15.803 --> 00:17.748
communities . Dennis set the three

00:17.748 --> 00:19.970
sites have so far treated more than 700

00:19.970 --> 00:22.081
patients and completed more than 3400

00:22.081 --> 00:23.970
procedures . That's an average of

00:23.970 --> 00:26.137
nearly five procedures per patient . I

00:26.137 --> 00:28.303
was checking a young lady in and I had

00:28.303 --> 00:30.303
my head down . I was looking down ,

00:30.303 --> 00:32.526
signing her in on the sign in sheet . A

00:32.526 --> 00:34.637
teardrop hit maybe a foot in front of

00:34.637 --> 00:36.803
my paperwork and I looked up . She was

00:36.803 --> 00:38.970
just so grateful that the military was

00:38.970 --> 00:40.970
providing something like this where

00:40.970 --> 00:43.026
tears of joy that we're falling from

00:43.026 --> 00:46.610
her face . A wonderful service . I'm

00:46.620 --> 00:49.240
so grateful for it while getting dental

00:49.240 --> 00:51.462
care is routine for some , for others ,

00:51.462 --> 00:53.629
it means getting back something more .

00:53.629 --> 00:55.740
Well . We had another young lady , 34

00:55.740 --> 00:57.851
years of age , single mother with two

00:57.851 --> 00:59.907
small Children . She thought she was

00:59.907 --> 00:59.840
gonna have to have teeth pulled and

00:59.840 --> 01:02.062
apparently they were just able to knock

01:02.062 --> 01:03.896
some calculus off . And she said

01:03.896 --> 01:06.118
leaving here that she believes that she

01:06.118 --> 01:08.118
would be able to smile again . That

01:08.118 --> 01:07.980
touched my heart , touched my soul .

01:07.980 --> 01:10.100
Things like that . That makes this

01:10.280 --> 01:13.050
important extremely important . Yeah ,

01:13.060 --> 01:14.850
some nice . Thank you .
