On a good note out of that report last night. Two sisters from Pittsburg that run an orphanage in Haiti were granted permission to fly 150 orphans to Pittsburg to be taken care of. Granted, that is not even an 8th of the orphans in Haiti from BEFORE this disaster, but it is something. A glimmer of hope for that handful of small children.

I found out today that a doctor from my area closed up his practice here temporarily on the day it happened, chartered a private plane, and took his entire staff down there to assist the wounded. As it turns out, he has a home down there that they are able to set up a free clinic in and they have been able to do some good.

I am so thankful for those that are able to assist the Haitians with this terrible travesty.
