hit the ground running. . .

i arrived in haiti safe and sound.

the only real problem was 60 missing bags from american airlines.  not sure how that many didn't get on the plane, but we got them a couple days later to the relief of the eye surgery team who couldn't operate without them.

i think to say that i have hit the ground running would perhaps be an understatement.  i knew things here in haiti would be hard due to the hurricane and it is!!

children are sicker, adults are sicker, things are extremely difficult here.  the hard reality is that things will more than likely get worse before they get better due to the hurricanes.

the awesome aspect is that God has placed extremely important people here at just the right times because they are seeing and being burdened for this place.
