A Spanish-speaking mother brought her young adult daughter and her elementary-aged daughter to Care House Clinic for dental services. Because of their financial situation, they had never been able to access dental care. After the initial exams, the provider detailed what treatments would be necessary.
The mother worriedly asked, "How much will all this cost us?"
When Leticia, the translator, told her it wouldn't cost her anything, the mother asked
again, "How much is this going to cost?"
Leticia answered once more, "Nothing. It is free."
The mother got teary-eyed as she said, "Thank you! Thank you! You are a blessing from God."
