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.
I saw a movie where only the military and the police had guns. It was called Schindler's List.

Prayers for good health and return home.
The end of democracy, and the defeat of the American Revolution will occur when government falls into the hands of lending institutions and moneyed incorporations.
