take off!

Heading to Port-Au-Prince tomorrow morning!

Just a last minute thanks to everyone who donated, you all helped me raise $500 that will go directly to prescription meds, immunizations, antibiotics, etc!

I'll be sure to post once I get back in the states with pictures from the trip.


Dawson your present is ready to get broken in!

deja vu of two years ago?

The clinic posted that they experienced a 4.4 earthquake the other night in Port-Au-Prince... they said there was panic throughout the streets but no one was injured.  I hope that was just a scare and not a sign that something bigger is on its way.  That being said, I made sure to register with the US Embassy a few days ago... just in case.

6 days until I'm on my way... preparing by brushing up on my trauma protocols (unfortunately, the clinic sees a lot of child abuse injuries)

Thank you for the generous donations, they will be put towards buying prescription medications for us to bring!
