Day 1 Miami

I made it to Miami around 3:30 this afternoon and met Dr. Rudd Bare from Ohio who will be going with me to New Life Children's Home this week. He is a trauma doctor and will be traveling to numerous hospitals to serve in the emergency room. Because we arrived early there was time to go to the beach and relax as well as have a cheeseburger before leaving in the morning for Port Au Prince. Dr.Bare went to Haiti last year after the earthquake and worked at the main hospital in the city where a majority of the severly injured patients were sent. We discussed the many stories of tradgedy and hope and look forward to arriving in the morning to continue. I am anxious and apprehensive about landing tomorrow to see how the continued relief efforts (or lack thereof) have assisted the country. I look forward to seeing the kids specifically Wisbens and begining the long journey of bringing him home.
