Drove with 25 people in 5 vehicle caravan from the Dominican town of Barahona at first light. Crossing the border into Haiti, was crowded but seemed extremely safe. We traveled 11 Km to an orphanage that’s been converted into a medical facility. Patients are receiving incredible care considering the circumstances. I branched off from my last team and I’m now at Good Samaritan Hospital being briefed by 2 Plastic Surgeons from Florida who are heading home tomorrow. Here major surgeries are being performed in 5 ORs daily. I just watched a 6 week old little girl come in in respiratory arrest. 10 pediatricians worked on her and she’s now stabilized. Tomorrow AM I’ll start operating here. Everywhere I turn I seem to bump into the most amazing people here. It really renews my faith in the human spirit.
Goodnight from Haiti.
