“You are my family now”–Stancia to Michael Lear, RMF Haiti

Michael Lear, Haiti, Jan 25th 2010

Upon returning from Port-au-Prince, Michael became friends with one of the many victims that experienced tragedies beyond measure: “I went to help with the relocated patients placed on the lawn in front of the post-op ward.   It was there that I met Stancia.  Stancia lost everything – her whole family, her husband, her children and her house.
She lay alone in the Dominican Republic with crushed legs, not knowing how to start over.  Her first words to me are – “I am dead.  I have lost everything, my family, my husband and children and my house.  It is just me and God……..and you.  You are my family now.”

Please help us to provide Stancia with hope and the support to start her life over.
