Before the hurricane...

So tomorrow night Mr. Isaac will hit us,we are nervous about our very first hurricane! We feel prepared with only a few things left to do tomorrow to get ready. Among them, we have to take one of the Good Rest boys to the dentist tomorrow, his tooth is hurting him. Our options are a hospital that is about an hour's drive away or another visit to the Cuban clinic. Hmmm...

We are happy to report that after a week where food was scarce at Good Rest, money has come in and the kids will have food and gas to get them through the upcoming month. We have been talking to them about how to save any possible extra to build up a reserve for hard times, but so far we have not seen progress in this. On Monday Steve from our organization will be here and we hope that he will have financial and other solutions to help improve everyone's quality of life. Safe travels, Steve!

Thank you to our family Matt and our friend Jeni for donating money to us to buy food, we are spending it where it is needed the most!

Mangoes and Rolls, the breakfast of champions!
