Update from Candace - by Mom

I just got off the phone with Candace. Very, very difficult to get through. We were lucky to have about 20 minutes and then the line went dead. She wants everyone to know that she is doing very well. Unfortunately, there is no internet service and the phone lines come and go. Texting appears to be working, so if you want to try to communicate that way, here is the number: 011 509 3436 4730

She is very busy - doing about 2 births a day. While we were talking there was a mom waiting to deliver. It's very hot - no rain yet. They can cool off by taking a dip in the ocean.

I was going to send her some powdered Gatorade, but unfortunately, due to the earthquake, Canadian and US postal service is not forwarding any mail. Even FedEx is not sending anything to Haiti. They could have service back sometime in May.

So, she says a big HELLO to everyone. She is thinking of family and friends back home but is doing really good. So, if you want to communicate briefly with her - try texting.
