Another reminder today of just how generous are our neighbors in this corner of the state. Our report yesterday about a family in Leland left homeless after their Christmas tree caught fire has touched a chord. They say they’re receiving many offers of help and reporter Max Winitz who did the original story is heading back to Wildflower Lane to do a follow up today.
A couple of major medical stories are in the works. We’ll carry reports on the Cleveland hospital that says it has completed the first full-face transplant. And reporter Claire Simms will be heading to New Hanover Regional Medical Center this afternoon to do a report on a new robot used in medical procedures. We’re told she’ll actually get to test drive the robot…and I’m jealous.
Finally, the Salvation Army came with trucks this morning and removed the gazillion toys and bikes you donated for children. It’s amazing to see the display of giving…especially when you can only imagine the moment when those gifts light up young faces.
But be assured they do..and it’s due to you.
Thank you.
