Saturday


WE woke to a hot day but there is a breeze and that really helps. We have already finished burn clinic as we try to only do the ones that need to be seen and can not wait until Monday. We had 2 new children with burns today. One 2 year old that was reaching up and it spilled under her arm and down her side, One 2 year old that had boiling water on her foot from the family meal of boiling beans and rice. They are so good. They just sit there and let us treat them. They are happy for the Pic Willy which is a sucker that we give after we treat them.
Glen left for PAP (town) with Kevin another missionary here. They were going to check out ECODepot and NAPA and pick up the Mail from AGAPa. That is the flight service that brings in mail and letters so that it goes for US postage. All package have to have custom duty paid on them. Glen is trying to get a idea of where to get parts as he is trying to keep things working. Very different than the States, If this picture comes thru it is of the piles of rubble that are every where from the destroyed houses.

  1. Hi Linda & Glen,
    So glad to see the pictures. The pictures of the masses of people and the traffic jam of mules was incredible. How do you plan to spend Easter? You are having such a once in a life time experience and I know the people of Haiti will be blessed by your love and care. I hope you stay strong and healthy.

  3. Linda and Glen It was so exciting to hear from you on Saturday. I have been missing you. I don't know if I could come down there just looking at all the people makes me nervous. I am so glad that God gave you the heart for this. Take care and don't get to tired. Steven has been looking at the pictures with me and says hi. Doris is hear for the week at her meeting in Cheyenne so I will get to spend some time with her. She said that maybe we could go swimming in her hotel. That would be fun but we have to talk with the doctor on Tanner first. We are praying for you and your safe return I can't wait to see you. Love Karla and Steven
