Connie and the I-Team are ready for surgeries today

(This is Brent typing.) It's Saturday morning. Connie sent me a text this morning saying they set up the OR yesterday. Although she didn't sleep well last night, she is ready and eager to start work today. She's sleeping in a tent on the rooftop of the mission, and she says there are so many stars to see--shooting stars, too. How wonderful it must be to feel so close to them and witness the Beauty. I imagine it's sort of surreal, given the circumstances all around her.

She is able to text and call from her phone, but she won't be doing that much. It's 50 cents to send a text (5 cents to receive one) and $2 per minute to talk. It's kind of nice that it's the same time in Haiti as it is in Kansas City. They are one time-zone ahead of us, but they don't observe Daylight Savings, so the time is the same. Anyway...

Hoping the surgeries go well today!
