TIMA Stories
First, it has been very difficult to procure personal protection equipment, given the speedy progression of the outbreak. If it were not for the tremendous support provided by many medical professionals and supporters who have tried every possible way to secure all sorts of PPE, we wouldn’t have been able to make it.
It really blows my mind how coordinated we are, how much love we give, how much love we get.
Albert Hsu, TIMA Volunteer Doctor
If one day I stopped breathing, part of my body may continue living because of the organ donation. That is real love (Da Ai).
Lynn Kuan, TIMA Member
