Susie Silook She used the wrong instrument in a patient's ear and it malfunctioned and shot into his ear, forever destroying his hearing. She then violated confidentiality all over town by lying, defending herself. While she touts her Christianity, it's a facade. Most people considered her too inexperienced, all book learning. She was asked to resign.

VIvien Viv asked that I share who I am. I am a high school friend of Viv's (confusing as she is Vivian with an "a" and I am Vivien with an "e". Since I've know her for so long I have to say, she was always the way she is now, kind, intelligent, and beautiful. I know she'll be a great leader on this trip.
