Haiti Mission Trip: Setting up the operating room
Arriving at the clinic in Haiti, Dr. Kondot gets set to work immediately. We were not planning to work today, we just wanted to unpack the supplies, set up the operating room, check out the microscope and see how the sterilization station operates. But as soon as we enter the main area of the clinic, patients are waiting to be looked at. So we get down to business and start patients examination on the spot.
One patient after another, Dr. Kondrot begins one day early I guess. We are already on the ground, we might as well work!
We have a patient whose eye pressure is 60! The clinic staff is hoping dr. Kondrot can do something for her.

Haiti Mission Trip Preparation
We are now getting ready for our next trip. Haiti, Croix Des Bouquets, working out of the facilities of Living In Faith. We are very excited.
We connect with Russ Montgomery to coordinate out flight tickets, we are planning to fly out together as Russ is a pro at getting in and out of Haiti and wants to make sure we have a safe travel, that our supplies will get in and not get stuck at custom and of course watch over our security while we are on the ground in Haiti.
We invite Russ over for a home-cooked meal and work on plans for the upcoming trip
