Urgently Needed Medical Supplies

I have a bag of trauma kits and other emergency medical supplies that my cousin and niece kindly donated. Word reached emergency personnel and physicians in western Ukraine directly dealing with the injured that  supplies are in Poland. In talking over delivery, they mentioned a desperate need for the items listed below, due to the large number of wounded and limited supplies on hand.

If anyone reading this has ideas on purchase and delivery, please contact me at talley.br@gmail.com   We have a Go Fund Me page set up, but I have not promoted it.
