Last October, I visited Haiti for a two week medical mission. We were able to see over a thousand patient and performed over fifty operations. I got to meet Dr. Yvens Cassamajor, a Hatian doctor in training who was completing a rotating internship througout the country. Yvens contacted me to tell me about a project he is starting for people living with HIV in the city of Cap-Hatien. He is in need of funds to support his research. Please consider assisting him in this venture. Donations can be made on this site:

Thank you for any help you can give, and please consider passing this post along to others.

    I have a friend that served in the military and she told me about a website that offers special discounts for military families. What I found surprising was that it not only offers discounts through national companies, they had local restaurants and merchants that offered great deals, some were owned by vets. They also had news, some hilarious jokes, information for people interested in joining the military and so much more! Has anyone else seen this sight and have you gone to some of the businesses listed. Please let me know. The website is: mymilitarypages.com
