Beverly is back in Haiti

Beverly is the nurse from our team; she's back in Haiti right now, working at the Artibonite Valley Hôpital Albert Schweitzer, where the center of the cholera outbreak is.

That hospital's blog is here:

...they seem to update it about every other day, so it's a good place to keep track of the Cholera outbreak.

And Bev's personal blog is here:

She told me she'll do her best to update it, but of course internet access in Haiti can be iffy.

ps:
Tropical storm Tomas is expected to hit Haiti on Friday. Meanwhile, $500 million in US aid- your tax dollars- are being held up by a single Republicans senator from Oklahoma. He's been blocking that money since May.
