Please help rebuild Haiti...
I don’t think that any of us can truly understand the depths of the devastation in Haiti…
As shocking as television and news images are, they’re really just the tip of the iceberg of the all-encompassing tragedy of Port-Au-Prince…
The email below found its way to HitDanBack through an old friend, direct from Haiti, only a couple of days ago…
“Traveling deep into port au prince. It Is AWFUL….
The non government agencies are operating SOLO, no help. The Haitian government, non-existent. This is a horrific tragedy, I cannot believe what I’m seeing and the lack of help, the willingness to let people die and the way the media is not showing the truth.
I’m with two US medic friends in a church, waiting for New York Presbyterian team to get to me from Santo Domingo and in the meantime they’re working with French doctors, with NO help from anyone doing surgeries on people. They fixed a femur, re-attached the scalp on a woman, all on their own, in the open air, incredible stuff.
What have we become???? How did we let things get this bad??? I’m shocked.
- People have food, people have water, but they need medicine, doctors, and nurses! Lots and lots of nurses! If you know any nurses, tell them to run the word, Haiti needs nurses by the plane load…”
Giving from your pocket is wonderful, but if you have the skills and training to help medical teams save lives, your presence will help repair Haiti in the most vital way…
Haiti desperately needs nurses to volunteer through their Red Cross or partners in health…
Please repost this letter and spread the word to everyone you know (especially health professionals) to keep help coming. xo
