Funny, we all thought about what we missed from home while we were in Haiti. Now of course, human nature being what it is, I am thinking about what I miss from Haiti!
The Haitian people. Beautiful, strong, and amazingly tough.
The spirit of being part of a wonderful team.
The unbelievably good smells coming from the mess hall when the Haitian ladies were cooking..... and the meals....! And that yellow juice... so yummy!
A cold coke in the Staff Lounge at the compound - because it was a treat
The feeling of complete weariness after the nightshift, cold shower, and a wee bit of breakfast - and crawling into bed, tucking in the mosquito netting..hmmmmmmmmmm and zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz................!
The Billy Graham Chaplains....always there, always praying, and so approachable. Thanks you guys :)
The sound of singing in the chapel as you are beginning your sleep after nightshift. Surreal, really.
The translators - amazing, funny, brilliant!! (Jean Marie who could take an amazing medical history...and started learning to do IV's on the IV arm!!)
Brutus's singing and laughter
