Guam - Teresita Estoque Callo has called the Guam Memorial Hospital her second home for the last 50 years but today she is celebrating her retirement. Throughout her years of service Callo has served the hospital in various capacities.

"As a patient advocate I have been her at the old hospital since 1968 I have been a nurse in the medical ward and other wards in the hospital until I moved on into here I worked in the operating room intensive care unit and then the recovery room," she said.

Spending her time helping the health community Callo has been a part of medical missions and has also help the hospital receive equipment through donations. And while she is sad to go she says she must start the next chapter of her life.
