My wife flew to the highlands of Haiti with a small church group last Wednesday to help in a mission there. En route toward the end of destination her bag with her medicine, glasses, contacts, toiletries and half her money were stolen, misplaced-I don't know exactly; communication has been spotty.

Anyway she developed a migraine from sleep loss and going from -10 in IA to 80-90 deg in Haiti, couldn't eat or drink and became dehydrated. A nurse got her a flight on Missionary Flight Int'l and she just landed in Ft. Pearce Fl. I don't know if a trip to a ER is in store yet and an overnight stay in a hosp or if she can manage to get home alone. I may have to have to go down and accompany her back.

I'd ask that you'd remember her for a smooth ride home if you would..and that she can.

Prayers from North alabama. The Lord will provide protection and guidance. Your wife has a great heart for people. I may go to Haiti in the next few weeks as I have been training for disaster relief with the Alabama dept of missions.


Beware of thieves, scammers and dishonest members on the "Fire" classifieds. Ya there is a thief here too. Whatever!!

GN,
You got 'em, sir.
Good for your wife for going to Haiti in the first place.
I don't think I would have the guts to do that.

Thanks for letting us know to pray for her - such thoughtfulness and selflessness deserve the best. If things are somewhat extreme and she needs some assistence or a place to stay, I have a relative near Daytona and maybe could help.

Hoping this works out sooner than later. If she was close to here the wife and I could just go pick her up until you got here. At least she wouldn't have to spend too much time in an airport, and we're pretty quiet when someone has a migraine...btdt.
Good luck to you.

Prayers for good health and return home.
