" I have been going to Haiti since 1997, providing medical care to the Haitian communities. I am the surgical coordinator for the Northwest Haiti Christian Mission in St. Louis Du Nord Haiti. When our medical teams go there, were do approx. 50 to 75 major surgeries, and approx 125 minor proceudres. We are so blessed in the U.S. but what we need to remember, is that we say that people in Third World Countries are poor people. Why do we call them poor, They don't call themselves poor. The problems that I see here is that we don't know what poor is!!! What kind of feeling would you get when you hear people say we only get what we need, and not what we want. Look at this country. GREED!!! It would be so nice if our elite helped instead of hindering and practiced what they preached. Take a trip some time and participate. "
