Another Baby Is Born In Our Clinic!

Here is a concerned father.  This in number 8 and the family is now without a home.  Mother and baby are fine. Debbie Solley was midwife and Dr. Miller checked the mother afterwards.  He is a cute little fellow.


Pamela Shirk is at work counting out pills, bagging them, and dispensing them.

Dr. Myon Miller, Doreen Miller, Faith Layton, and Carol Hershey are reorganizing the medicines in the clinic.

An elderly woman was left at our doorstep a few weeks ago.  She is in the last stages of TB.  Being a great health risk to others we had to move her to an isolated area of the yard.  Rev. Jonas Hight and a Haitian man helped in the undesirable task.
Pastor Jonas Hight and Joel Jackson have arrived in Haiti.  Joel volunteered to help sort through donated items.  We have baby food and formula, diapers, medicines, clothing, tools, blankets, and various other items.

Ysemerline goes to the US Naval Ship Comfort; Another medical team arrives!

We had to leave Ysemerline with her father , Innocent Rene', so they could be transported to the US Navy ship, Comfort.  She will be evaluated there and it will be decided where she should get medical attention.  There are several options and they will determine what should be done.


Dr. Julia Redcay goes along with Ysemerline to take her to the Army Base where she will be lifted by helicopter to the US Navy ship Comfort.


Drs. Myron and Doreen Miller, Pamela Shirk, Faith Layton, and Carol Hershey came by the way of the Dominican Republic.  They had a most interesting day today. There were many at the clinc here at the compound and they went mobile in the afternoon.  They were crowded by many who needed medical attention.
