Karen Returned to Warm Welcome on Tuesday!

October 4, 2014 Posted by Keith Wight

Hi. It’s Keith and Karen has me blogging, even though I don’t arrive in Haiti until Tuesday!!! (She hopes to get a blog up by next week.)

Karen arrived back at HATS on Tuesday to a warm and loud welcome from the kids. She was in Newfoundland for 5 weeks for medical treatment and is back as good as new – only thing different according to her – she has less energy. Of course there was a mountain of things to do and help is on the way. Joan and I arrive Tuesday and we will be at HATS for 4-5 weeks. Our team of Carol, Lily, Al, Gary and Cathy arrive with us and will be there for a week.

As part of Karen’s welcome home the electricity from Hydro Haiti is off. Also the Delco/generator is on the fritz. New one not yet arrived. As a result, very little internet etc. (Only when Luckner loans his small generator to charge Karen’s batteries for a couple of hours)

So this is just a short blog to bring you up to date and there will be more next week.
