I believe there was a movie that was made that was based on his life, wasn't it? The one with Robin Williams? I think it was called "Patch Adams". Good movie. I will definitely be donating to this cause.

He also works around the globe. There is a donate button on Patch's site and they also sell scrubs at scrubnuts which you can see on his site. All proceeds go to Patch's efforts, which are also global.<br />Here is a link to a heart-wrenching video of Patch in Kabul. If you can watch this without being moved to tears, I would be amazed---but it is not for the faint of heart.<br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6b7gIb2GT9k<br /><br />Patch and I are presently working on an interview which should be up within the next week. What an honor it is to deal with this wonderful man.<br /><br />Hugs to you, Judie, my dear sister and to all of you who are so compassionate in spirit.<br />CherCher Duncombehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00070334939399949702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5464278377527384610.post-50703941265379089392011-04-18T07:22:11.756-07:002011-04-18T07:22:11.756-07:00Such a wonderful gesture on your part Judie.

The movie was titled “Patch” and for some reason I had not seen the movie. So I thought I’d go and find out what Dr. Patch was all about. I was surprised with what I found out.<br /><br />According to Wikipedia, Dr. Patch Adams founded a project called the Gesundheit! Institute. The goal of the Institute is to integrate a traditional hospital with alternative medicine such as naturopathy, acupuncture, and homeopathy. Care combines integrative medicine with performing arts, crafts, nature, agriculture, and recreation. One of the continued missions of the Gesundheit! Institute involves the concept of "humanitarian clowning". Adams wants the Gesundheit! Institute to open a 40-bed hospital in rural West Virginia that offers free, holistic care to anyone who wants it. <br />If I were sick this would be the hospital for me! Dr Patch sounds like a very compassionate doctor that has poured his life work and his heart into a very worthy cause. With millions of people going without medical care, this sounds like a worthy charity. Thanks for bringing this to my attention and thanks for sharing this everyone Judie!~AmesAmeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15074479473400202674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5464278377527384610.post-3956182956829350892011-04-17T22:46:02.735-07:002011-04-17T22:46:02.735-07:00Thanks for sending the link.
