mama kathy

So i just received an update from mama kathy and i think it would be a great update on here about what is going on in haiti...so i think she wouldnt mind me posting it..so here are some words from mama kathy...

"first things first..i am now going on day two...and night two and soon to be day three in the same clothes...i came to the hospital on wed.for my shift that has ended up being three days long..

but it is a very nice hospital so i really can't complain..plus Dorothy is wonderful even when she is wretching...and i am certain i have an Angel here called ""the angel of don't let kathy smell anything bad and keep her from puking"

i am not a nurse and i have done it all here...so glory to God and His angels!

i sleep on a blanket on the tile floor but it is ok, there are a tleast two other people on the floor too...family to the woman in the other bed beside us..kind of feels like...humanity.

We have been released to go home tomorrow,which we were going to do with or without this release...so good for the doctor he didn't try to tangle with these white girls!

Son Sam has been quite amazing...really handling the stressful stuff. Today
( Kez, the nurse living at dorothy's was teaching, Kevens(our Haitian son who speakes perfect english and translates for us) was at school, dorothy and i are far away in a hospital)

He was alone at the house with 20? babies..some sick, 4 or 5 nannies who looked to him for answers about meds, food etc...a car that needed repair..and dealing with the haitian mechanic who came to fix it, He had to walk about two miles...up hill...to pick up Kez, the nurse from her temporary teaching job, and then walk back...(yes, it is hot here)

He phoned this morning while doing the babies meds..we had done them together the day before...he said "ok Mom, just walk me through this..i can't find Poutchinos seizure med..".now that is the ONE you want to get right! Bless his heart.he got it.....He does need a gold ribbon of some sort...

Extreme home school! And he worries if I am ok up here !

So Dorothy is going to be fine. We have been emailing back and forth with Dr. Mike Hamm.He has been wonderful..on call through emails...he told her to not eat at all until this wretching stops...the hospital says she must eat hardy meals... ( so i will eat her dinner tonight..if they send us something! )

So thankful for so many prayers..strength and wisdom...GOD PUSHES IT TOWARD US AT ALL TIMES!

We are so happy that Casey is returning on saturday to join in the fun....

there is a mission team coming on saturday too, from somewhere..we do not know much about them except that they are coming to work with Dorothy's kids...so we will get to meet some more folks...fun fun fun! they are staying at the guest house. (PTL)

I come home on monday...Lynn Wright is driving to Ft. lauderdale and has volunteered to pick me up! hooray for lynn...

We pick up Tasha at the jax airport 9:30 pm monday...can't wait to be with her!"

Mama Kathy

so that was the latest i heard, pray for continued wisdom and strength for everyone involved as Dorothy recovers from getting her appendix taken out.
