Haiti

I just wanted to let everyone know that my mom is leaving for Haiti next week. She will be going as part of a medical team to provide surgical services to the people who were injured in the earthquake. Although she is very excited about this opportunity, it is also a little scary. I would just like for everyone to keep her in their prayers. They really don't know what to expect once there, but she recently found out that they will more than likely be in a hospital with electricity and running water, so that is a plus. Of course it is very, very hot there and most places have no AC and the conditions are very bad. They are not sure about food availability, sleeping arrangements, security, or much of anything else. She is going to try and keep friends and family updated on facebook so if you are interested in staying updated - request her to be a friend.
