This is a lady from Artibonite.Her name is Magalene Beaubrun .Her daughter has a heart problem and needs operation.Haitian Hearts mission founded by Dr John Carroll in Peoria, Illinois is organizing a trip for Magalene's daughter to go to the U.S. for surgery.On my side, i have been doing my best to get passport for both Magalene and her daughter to enter to America.
She lives in a neighborhood called La Chapelle, Artibonite.She was explaining me the situation over there.Artibonite (Haitian Creole: Latibonit) is one of the ten departments of Haiti. The area is 4984 km ² and the population is more than 1,202,800 inhabitants.Artibonite is the main area of cultivation of rice for the country.
It's sad to understand the situation of the famine, whereas Artibonite is the main area of cultivation of rice for Haiti.One of the man problems that cause famine is the lack of resources that the farmers have.Nowadays, Haiti does not provide enough food from the land for the population.Millions of dollars spend every year to buy food from other countries, and the people can't afford to buy it every day.
We had a significant conversation about her area.Artibonite was also hit by the January 12 earthquake which killed more than 200000 people.
The people don't have enough to eat, most of the houses were damaged and destroyed.Magalene said no aid has not reach them yet but we know that a lot of money was given for this country and it's been almost 6 months since the country hit by a big earthquake.The people use sheets to make their small place to sleep.Magalene and her family do not have a good house to stay.Her father is suffering with prostate and very ill now.I gave Magalene that tent above to sleep with her family.She has six children but the tent has a capacity to hold four people.I am sorry and sad to know that the tent will not be able to fit all of her family.
My heart is touched to go there and visit.I'd like to learn about the farmers and the gardens.
Haiti is sick from head to toes.The Haitians families are suffering every where over the land.Your help is needed, and you are blessed to contribute in the development projects of this poor nation.
Many zones are affected by the earthquake.Please pray and help Haiti!
Thanks for all of your important help, Frandy. This has taken six years to find an excellent children's medical center to operate on Magalene's daughter's heart.
