Now the fun begins...

5 of us were transported to the UN compound this am to spend the day working with amputees, spinal cord injuries and traumatic injuries. Basically several huge mash tents, all the workers scurrying around and running on adrenaline. Witnessed surgeries out in the open, helicopters constantly taking off and landing, all the UN supplies stacked in huge piles donated from the US. Saw too many patients too count, but did an amazing amount of good. Witnessed a level of human suffering that is beyond words. These Haitian people are so strong and really beautiful people. This day was so chaotic and emotionally powerful it is taking time for me to process it all and be ready to go again tomorrow. I will be at the UN compound all week and then to a different location next week near the border of the Dominican Republic so we will spend 4 nights there. I feel so privileged to be able to use my skills and help these desperate people. This will be without a doubt the most life changing experience of my life.
