Thanks for this information, Chris. I visit Matamoros occasionally, so
I will try to find Jorge and make a donation. I have to go back in
September to visit a doctor. He did surgery on my sinuses and this is
my annual exam. BTW, this was my 2nd time to have sinus surgery, and if
I need to have it again, I will go back to Matamoros. "Jorge McCoy", I
will remember that.
