All this, while you were bringing the world closer at Meridan Park hospital and Guelph, Ontario Canada. Yes, it is indeed "a small world”  when you use videoconferencing!

On Tuesday using their videoconferencing system at Meridian Park Hospital, they enabled a family member here in Oregon to visit with her parent and her parent's medical team in Guelph, Ontario Canada. The distance between the two cities, over 2600 miles, vanished during the visit.
