She is so gentle and calm, the patients relax, they hardly feel a thing as she seeks out and successfully inserts the life-saving catheter and I.V. We have all been thankful for Miss Michele's expertise over the years.

Read MoreDear friends,
As of this writing we have received about 850 people with symptoms of Coronavirus.
Read MoreWith the peak of the Covid-19 infections still ahead of Haiti, there is growing concern that there will not be enough beds for the sick. Father Rick has made a special appeal specifically for the purchase of 50 beds for the Covid unit. The St. Luke’s team has identified beds that will meet criteria for both the comfort of the ailing patient and the portability to move when necessary. We have a shipment leaving for Haiti in the next two weeks that will get the beds to St. Luke's in a timely manner. The cost of each bed is $60. If you feel moved to sponsor one or more beds for the Covid-19 unit, kindly click below and you will be forwarded to the St. Luke’s website. Please indicate “Covid-19 bed” in the special purpose section of the donation form. As always, we are extremely grateful for your support for our mission. God bless.
Dear Family and Friends,
This is our prayer as COVID 19 increases in Haiti over these weeks.
As our good friend Bhavesh (at Mayo Clinic, Phoenix) has correctly said, when it comes to COVID 19, we physicians are all medical students again.
