“I lost one leg, but I gained several more pairs to walk alongside.”
— Bhante Dam Phommasan
After Bhante Dam Phommasan was injured during the Walk for Peace, Dr. Brandon Tran supported his care journey in Washington, D.C. as a volunteer doctor and later with Mercer University’s Mercer On Mission team.
