A Reminder

Hello. I am e.n.d. Once upon a time I came from Minnesota. But then I moved everywhere.

Curiosity didn't kill the cat. Complacency did.

Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor

 

doctorswithoutborders: January 12, 2010, will forever remain engraved in Haiti’s collective memory. Nearly everyone in the country lost a relative, friend, or neighbor in the earthquake that hit that day, and many survivors continue to suffer physical or psychological after effects. The piles of rubble and gaping holes in the streets of Port-au-Prince show that the city itself still bears the scars as well. Doctors Without Borders /Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) was working in Haiti before the disaster and lost 12 staff members in the earthquake. Two MSF hospitals—the La Trinité trauma center and the Solidarité OB/GYN clinic—were destroyed. In the two years that have followed, MSF supported a Ministry of Health hospital in the Cité-Soleil slum and built four emergency hospitals in the area affected by the earthquake, an area more than 2 million people call home.
