Hi Dave and all,
My sincerest thanks..!! A difficult day. However - Finally - Adrien (one of the Rennwish folks in Haiti) was able to grab an internet connection... His area has no phones (and since my Haiti number is tied to that same area - I have no phone into Haiti...)... So - here are snippets of his long e-mail - but, in short - all our kids are OK..
Thank you all who posted in this read, or read this thread, or have supported Rennwish...
"Dear Brother
...it did not make a lot of damage in les Cayes but in port-au-prince it broke a lot of buildings, a lot of people die. People that leave in les Cayes are victim because they have their family leave at port-au-price. Some of these peoples you know too.
Now in Haiti there are a lot people crying for their close family they are lose and until now we don’t know the number of death and Injured people we have. They searchers and the investigators keep seeking for the death and injured people. We have many relatives and friends in Port-au-prince so, We don’t know how many victims we have because we don’t have any way to communicate, phone does not work.
There are some deaths in les cayes and a lot of injured people in hospital in les cayes and there is not enough bed for them.
It is a very sad situation for Haiti. I love you my brother.
Your brother,
Adrien"
