Finishing Up

After a long day traveling back to Port-au-Prince and Matthew 25 House, we went for lunch at the famous Oloffson Hotel. The electricity failed which meant no fans. The service was very slow. But we enjoyed being together.

At our final evening's time together, Butch commented on what he had heard Delson say (Dr. Delson Merisier, FHM's ob/gyn and medical director in Leogane). Delson was so pleased that we had been able to help so many people. Butch pointed out that helping others is really at the core of who Delson is. Delson had sent family, employees, and patients to the clinic because it was a great opportunity for them to get healthcare at a great low cost, even if that meant he was giving up paying patients.

We leave at 7 am tomorrow for the airport and the trip home. Thanks to those of you who commented. We hope all our readers enjoyed our blogging.
