It was the only way in that night, unless I wanted to sleep amongst the trucks and people trying to get across, so we laid down on the ground and shimmied our way in, laughing hysterically. We laughed so hard I couldn't move and was wedged between the poles. The Haitians, laughing as well, started to push me through. I made it, to the sound of applause, laughter and congratulations in 3 different languages!
A Week Was Worth It
Heading back to our base at the Good Samaritan Hospital in Jimani, we realized we had made new friends, and had brought whatever help we could to people in dire need of more.
Tyler and another friend remain at the Orphanage Notre-Dame of Perpetual Souls. Our mission now is to rebuild it through donations, help and hopefully more people who want to spend time doing the most important work that's possible.
