Earthquake
First and foremost the children at the orphanage are ok overall. Pray for Francisco as he has not made contact with his family in Port-au-Prince.
I've been able to contact Francisco via blackberry messenger. He has a bad headache and both feet are badly sprained. Cecile is okay too, but very nervous about everything. The first thing Francisco said is that they are now homeless.
They were able to make it to the kids, but it took
them five hours to get there. Most of the children are doing fine;
however, the temporary orphanage was severely damaged and they can no longer live there. Dr. Noel said nothing is left and they are currently living under a tarp.
We are working on another option for shelter for the children, but we await a report on the condition of the new temporary location. We will update everyone as soon as possible on the status of relocating the children. In Port-au-Prince, Francisco said the roads are pretty bad and bodies are everywhere.
I'm working on getting together a team for a January 24th trip. I'll need many things, including men willing to help and doctors willing to go down. The conditions will be rough. We need medical supplies and financial support immediately.
Please ask all you know to help. I will keep you posted as I find info.
Thanks, John Miller
