28th of Jan till the 10th of Feb. I don't know but you might find
helpful contacting Quisqueya Crisis center (near canadian ambassy).
They coordinate logistically, medical teams. Provide accomodation,
food, transport and security on site. Number is 3773-4664. I worked
at the haitian community hospital.<br />
take care and God bless you<br />

well some now dead or injured. My brother in law, dug out after 2
days surrounded by bodies of his colleagues, and only then because
his daughter, a nurse in the Dom Rep, got in a landrover with some
friends and went to find her Dad. Despite the huge aid effort it
really does seem to be about individuals making a difference. One
of the worst things we talk about in the family is the number of
amputations, and the dreadful cultural stigma that holds in Haitian
society.<br />
<br />
You are doing a great thing.<br />

that there are more casualties than after the atomic bomb was
dropped. Your blog also helps keep Haiti in the news. What amazing
work you are doing in such terrible conditions.<br />
Look after yourself.<br />

An Oxford surgeon just returned from Port au Prince - Chris
Bulstrode - was on the radio this am. I hadnt realised how bad
&amp; widespread it all was till I heard his account &amp; read
your posts. The surgeon agreed with your sentiments, saying this
disaster dwarfed all others he had been involved with. Look after
yourself (too).

picture you paint on a subject which, as Karen says, is
disappearing from our news but still very much in our
thoughts.<br />
<br />
Your blog is a powerful reminder (on Ash Wednesday, for me) of the
fragility of all that we are and do. I look forward to future
postings.]]></content:encoded><link>http://www.rcpsych.ac.uk//discoverpsychiatry/overseasblogs/haitiearthquakeblog/blessingmeon/reblessingmeontoport-a-6.aspx</link><pubDate>Wed, 17 Feb 2010 10:08:31 GMT</pubDate><guid>http://www.rcpsych.ac.uk//default.aspx?page=7072</guid></item><item><title>Re: Blessing me on to Port-Au-</title><description /><content:encoded><![CDATA[All of the sudden the dimensions of the Haitian disaster became so
