1.) DAN COLE would you please comment on this blog because Kylee misses you A LOTTTT and needs to know if all is well!! MAMA or PAPA or MOM in case Dan is not reading the blog please pass this along!!!
2.) To my parents: I am healthy, safe, and enjoying Haiti! See ya in a few days!
Anyways, today we went to Beehive international to teach their employees about first aide. Beehive international is an organization that supports and trains Haitian carpenters to build furniture out of pallets. We taught them how to take care of burns, fractures, head injuries, and cuts/scrapes. They were all extremely attentive and thankful for the time we took to educate them about first aide.
After lunch we went up into the mountains to pray for people, talk to people in the community, and take their blood pressures. We talked and prayed with the parents of a small child with microcephaly. It is difficult to see children in Haiti with disabilities that could be given adequate medical care in the States, but rather are unable to receive the necessary care.
As an organization we were able to help a young man, K.B., receive adequate medical care by paying for his medical bills. We met him yesterday at a public hospital and transferred him to a hospital that could give him faster care. He had injured his hand at work by mutilating it in a work machine. We found out today that he had his hand amputated yesterday and is doing well. We are so thankful that God led us to this man yesterday. It would be greatly appreciated if you continued to keep K.B. in your prayers as he recovers from his surgery.
Thank you for taking the time to read the blog and for keeping up with our trip. We would love continued prayer as we finish out our week of ministry.
