A huge hello to my family (Boston, NYC, NH & CT) and especially to my 2 most favorite girls in the world -Christina and Catherine. Thanks for spreading the word and forwarding the blog site to others. Maybe some of you will join us on the next trip!!! and a big thanks to Eric for all your support. I love you all! xoxoxoxoxo A quick update, today Jake and John Bracker, headmaster of Watkinson, were on toy distribution duty -giving toys to the children who were treated at the medical clinic. I had "bug juice" duty (Jake had this responsibility yesterday along with Sandy Garcia) -handing out cups of de-worming/parasite elimination liquid to all the people of the bateye. Most of the children do not have shoes and the parasites/worms bore up through their feet and infect their bodies. The juice eliminates the problem. Tomorrow, we are working at the hospital, building water filters to then be distributed to the bateyes. Keep posting comments -we love hearing from you!!!!
