Back again for my last post of the trip. We did another 15 cases today but had to deal with a couple of emergencies last night, so most of the crew is a little burned out tonight. We finished our last 2 cases by taking care of one our interpreters and one of our crew with minor surgeries…..treat your own last. We walked to the next village and saw how most of it was knocked down by the quake, fortunately, no one there died. Many people who still have houses are afraid to stay in them in case another quake comes, and are sleeping in tents in front of their houses. It’s not that the houses are unsound, the people are just freaked out that if another earthquake happens, next maybe they will get killed/hurt, instead of others which they all know. It has been a very productive week and a very fun group. I think most or all of us plan to come back to work here at Double Harvest again. Thank all of you at home for your support and help in making this possible. Tim Kennedy
