We are grateful for our Adventist Health volunteers who recently served 2,366 patients during their mission trip to the Philippine island of Mindoro.

Alongside local medical teams and churches, they cared for nearly 500 patients each day, performing over 600 minor surgeries and more than 1,000 dental procedures.

The trip was filled with prayer, laughter, and living God’s love.

“We were wonderfully blessed by the Filipino community. God is working!” said John Schroer, Director for Global Mission.

When you have asthma, it's important to know your zone, and have a plan for what to do if you feel worse.

You're in the green zone if you're doing well with no wheeze, cough, chest tightness, or shortness of breath. You may be getting worse if you're coughing or wheezing, have chest tightness, and cannot participate in all usual activities.

You're in the red zone and need immediate medical attention if you are very short of breath and cannot participate in any usual activities.

Talk to your doctor to develop a plan for what to watch for and what actions you need to take in each zone.

Back to life: Teri’s Knee and Hip Replacement Story

Pain has a way of taking over our lives sometimes, going beyond the physical challenges. That’s exactly what Teri, from Cottonwood, CA, had to endure before she found help and support from Dr. Ryan Moore and our expert team at Adventist Health C**n Joint Replacement Institute

Teri’s journey with our team began in 2017, when she came to us for a partial knee replacement. The results were life changing.

“I followed Dr. Moore’s post-op instructions and was walking the Las Vegas Strip just six weeks later,” she shared. “Eight years later, that knee is still wonderful.”

Years later, Teri faced a new challenge—severe pain in her opposite leg that left her unable to walk or care for her disabled adult son.

“I decided I was too young to be immobile,” she said.

Teri returned to the team she knew and trusted. "I had so much life to live and I had people who depended on me." Within days, she was seen by Dr. Moore.

“He immediately had me at ease… and it turned out it wasn’t my knee—it was my hip.”

“Three weeks later, I was rolling into surgery excited and happy. The staff at Adventist Health took really good care of me.”

Her recovery was swift—and powerful. “Three weeks later, I was walking without any assistance. Six weeks later, I was back to normal—lifting my son and walking a 12-minute mile.”

Today, Teri is pain-free and back to doing what matters most -- making memories with those she loves.
“I have a new lease on life. I will be forever grateful to Dr. Moore and his team.”
