From Jonnye Mastel, RN, of the OR

I feel like I have been practicing for this moment all my life…to be part of this extraordinary Boston team. I am profoundly grateful to the people of Rwanda who, in this week of remembrance, let us share with them such a celebration of life.

Jonnye Mastel is a nurse from Seattle who joined Team Heart to work as part of Chip Bolman’s surgical team. She and Chip worked together before he joined BWH.

Hello Sue Gabriel,

Thanks to you and Team Heart for doing such wonderful things in Rwanda. We missed you at Volleyball last night. We are gearing up for the Easter Seals tournament that won't be the same without you. We loved the e-mail you sent that chronicled your adventures and experiences to date. Take it all in. We will want to hear all the details when you get back.

We love you! Stay safe,

Your Monday-Night-Moms Volleyball Team

I too am sending my thoughts and prayers to the whole team, and a special "shout out" to Sue Gabriel. We're all really proud of the work you are doing. Maggie and Lucy and Rascal are fine (curled up together on the pillow). Take care, do good and have some fun. Love, Julie & Kevin & the Maple St. gang
