Flood Doctor Leaves For Haiti … Please Pray
Dear Family and Friends,
I’ll be heading out to the Dominican Republic tomorrow to help Haitian refugees. I will be flying to Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, then taking a 6-8 hour ride to Jimani, Dominican Republic. It’s a small town about 10 miles from the border and 40 miles from Port au Prince. There will be a general surgeon and an orthopedic surgeon and I think we will be doing, sadly, a lot of amputations and there will be lots of kids. We will be working out of a small hospital that is used by American surgeons to do eye surgery. I have no idea what to expect except…I’m going to need a lot of ketamine. I plan to work just a few days and be back Sunday evening. I’m going with a group that’s called Children of the Nations www.cotni.org. If you would like to help, please think of me and say some prayers for our patients.
Love,
Christine
