One Woman Makes a Difference

Bryan met a wealthy, Haitian woman, one of the few in Haiti known as "bougeoisie," historically despised by the poor, and for good reason.

But this earthquake put all haitians in the streets, regardless of money or power. Tonight, the rich sleep with the poor.

This woman told Bryan, "I have taken from this country my whole life. Now I know it is time to give back." She is doing what we are doing, using her connections, money, and resources to shuttle supplies and Haitian doctors and nurses from Florida, to the people who have nothing...who have always had nothing...and now have even less.

The doctors that she brought are the ones who happened by...when Evelyn was lying in the street...
