Left Undone

Coming home is Bitter Sweet. It's great to see my family, to hug my husband, and to kiss and hold my children. But, at the same time there is so much left undone in Haiti. Part of my heart is still there. It was the first time I ever held a baby who was starving to death. Then prayed and cried with the mother, who couldn't breast feed her baby because she got hurt in the earthquake. Therefore her 4 month old was starving. She had no money for formula. Stavation is so real.. a real reality that I can no longer ignore. After I saw him, I went out and bought a bottle and formula, only to later find out his body was too wasted away at this point to handle food. He neeeded IVF first and slowly regain stregnth. My world was crushed.. No one knew of a hospital where he could go. So, I laid in bed that night and prayed for a miracle. The next day brought a new ray of hope and light. Dr. Kara found a place that could take him, a hospital that would feed him IVF. A miracle was happening before my eyes. I was a part of something bigger than myself. Lord please be with the 4 month old baby.
