Welcome to the "Pedro Paneros" network, Robert! I have the honor to be the first to comment on your wonderful and entertaining story. It brought a smile to my face. I bet your patients were not only well cared for, but also always smiled when they saw you arrive. Yes, having this Pedro Pan experience created a special bond among us Cubans who came as kids and alone in those first years. Whether we met in person or not, whether we "forgot" one another or kept in touch over the years, we are sure to start a conversation and keep it going for a long time as we share memories and feelings that have been stored in our minds and hearts. May you enjoy this site and find as many old and new friends as I have. It's been tremendous! Con un abrazo de bienvenida, Yolanda
