walk.</span></div>

Have you ever known someone who would bow their neck and make a decision, even knowing the decision was wrong, and yet continue in their decision for pride's sake? Have you ever known anyone so full of pride that they refuse to make a change knowing that they have made a decision that gives them a destination called destruction? </span><br />

Their children when into the land, but they did not. When we become hard against God and what He is trying to teach us, when we become stiffnecked, we many times miss the blessings which God has for us.<br /><br />Deuteronomy 9:6 Understand therefore, that the Lord thy God giveth thee not this good land to possess it for thy righteousness; for thou art a stiffnecked people.<br /><br />God wants us to have understanding of the way He works in our life. He wants us to understand that if we are stiffnecked then we lose out on many of the blessings that God has for us. He writes these things for us to understand how He works in our lives.<br /><br />Deuteronomy 10:16 Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiffnecked.<br /><br />Each individual must make a decision NOT to be stiffnecked. Only you can make that decision for yourself.<br /><br />2 Chronicles 30:8 Now be ye not stiffnecked, as your fathers were, but yield yourselves unto the Lord, and enter into his sanctuary, which he hath sanctified for ever: and serve the Lord your God, that the fierceness of his wrath may turn away from you. 9 For if ye turn again unto the Lord, your brethren and your children shall find compassion before them that lead them captive, so that they shall come again into this land: for the Lord your God is gracious and merciful, and will not turn away his face from you, if ye return unto him.<br /><br />When we are stiffnecked, we cannot serve God. Yielding unto God is the opposite of being stiffnecked. We cannot enter into His presence when we are stiffnecked. When we are in a position that we are stiffnecked, we must turn again to God, because we have turned away from Him. God is gracious and merciful, if we return unto him. If we do not, then there is judgment.<br /><br />Right now someone reading this is saying but all this is Old Testament. Yes and it is New Testament also, Stephen was stoned to death because he gave this very word to the hard hearted religious leaders. The covered their ears it made them so mad. They refused to hear because they wanted to believe that God would bless them no matter what they did.<br /><br />Acts 7:51 Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do ye.<br /><br />Are you doing something wrong in your life and expecting God to bless you anyway? Are you being stiffnecked and hard headed? Are you continuing in sin and waiting for the hammer to fall? If the answer is "yes", then ask for forgiveness and enter into His presence. When we are in His presence there is fullness of joy!<br /><br />1 John 1:4 And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be full. 5 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. 6 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:<br />7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. 8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.</span></span>Teresa A.

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;">We need someone or some people to help us repair the fence line. Each post is a minimum of $10 each and there are about 300 posts ruined. This is a $3,000 project and then there is the new barbed wire to buy. We are thinking of using PVC 4" Tubes filled with concrete and a 1/2" rebar. This would increase the life f the posts by years and years. It would give us a pretty white fence and it would be indestructible. Fire could theoretically melt the PVC but not the cement inside. The cost if we go this route is more like $16 per post.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />Electrical supplies update! </span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have asked people and asked God for help for all the <b>electrical parts and pieces</b> which were stolen from the new orphanage/farm which was donated to the ministry. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Money, electrical parts and gift cards from Lowe's, Home Depot and Wal Mart </b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>will also be accepted and appreciated. </b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We need several churches to help us raise money and to make missions trips to help us fix up and clean up the children's farm and get everything ready to move in. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Anyone know how to get a JAMMED pump out of a 325 foot deep well?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We think it is jammed at about 65 feet deep. Seems someone was trying to steal it and it fell in on them and jammed part way down... Hoping we don't have to replace tube.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We hope to be moved in by June with the 10 children plus more.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We are now 15 days away from the date which we wanted to move in and we have been unable to raise all of the funds needed, but we are not discouraged!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We are on our way!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Keith and Vickie Crowder and I are on our way to the USA to raise funds for the farm.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ten children and their house parents ready and willing to move to the farm. Vickie and Keith Crowder are the missionaries who will run the children's home.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">You can see their blog here.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.acall2remember-ringring.org/">http://www.acall2remember-ringring.org/</a></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As you can see from their BLOG they do a lot of community ministry.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">They are a wonderful Spirit filled couple who are GREAT with kids.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We do not have electricity yet and cannot get electricity until we have all of the supplies. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">$260 has been donated. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Then another $520 was donated and then today another $250 was donated.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>SO WE ARE ON OUR WAY!</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The $260 plus the $520 was used to buy Romex in the USA which is being shipped down on a container. Why? Because it saves us a lot of money to buy the Romex in the USA verses here in Honduras where it is not available and we have to buy several different wires which cost more. We were able to purchase 1,000 feet of Romex for $260 or $.26 a foot.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The wire to do the same job is $1.96 per foot in Honduras! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">And a friend is shipping it down for free. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">That saved us $1,700 per roll.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">With last week's donation of $520 we were able to purchase another two of the 1,000 foot rolls, That donation knocked out the most expensive part of the electrical job at the children's home. In all that got rid of <span style="text-align: -webkit-right;">$5,586.00 worth of Honduran expenses for a mere $780.00 and I am guessing that the other wire which is needed is also much less expensive in the USA. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="text-align: -webkit-right;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="text-align: start;">We need 450 feet of 2 gauge wire x 3 which in Honduras is $5.10 a foot for a total of $2,293.20. In trying to look this wire up on the Lowe's web page I am confused as to what we need. Anyone with electrical sense out there who wants to help me figure it out? </span></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today Kathy and Jerry Guise donated all of the above supplies. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
22 light switches</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
23 plug ins</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2 ground fault plug ins</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
a 220 plug in for the stove we are praying will be donated</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
3 three in a row light switch plates</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
8 light switch plates</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
5 square receptical plates</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
8 plug in plates</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
8 cable and telephone plates</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Kathy and Jerry Guise have been friends of Honduras and friends of children for years.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They have a heart for children and they come to Honduras regularly to help with building teams for a children's home. They read about our needs and when they came down this time they threw together a few electrical things which will be a huge blessing for us.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have asked people and asked God for help for all the electrical parts and pieces which were stolen from the farm which was donated to the ministry.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We also need several churches to raise money and to make a missions trip to help us fix up and clean up the children's farm and get everything ready to move in. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We hope to be moved in by June with the 10 children plus more.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We now have 10 children and the house parents ready and willing to move to the farm, BUT we do not have electricity yet and cannot get electricity until we have $14,250 worth of supplies. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
$260 has been donated. This money was used to buy Romex in the USA which is being shipped down on a container. Why? Because it saves us a lot of money to buy the Romex in the USA verses here in Honduras where it is not available and we have to buy several different wires which cost more. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We just purchased 1,000 feet of Romex for $260. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The wire to do the same job is $1.96 per foot in Honduras! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A friend is shipping it down for free. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That saved us $1,700.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If we had enough money to purchase another two of the 1,000 foot rolls, it would knock out the most expensive part of the electrical for the orphanage. $520 plus tax and all the 12/3 wire would be purchased and that would get rid of the <span style="text-align: -webkit-right;">$5,586.00 worth of Honduran expenses for a mere $780.00 and I am guessing that the other wire which is needed is also much less expensive in the USA. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: -webkit-right;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: start;">We need 450 feet of 2 guage wire x 3 which in Honduras is $5.10 a foot for a total of $2,293.20. In trying to look this wire up on the Lowe's web page I am confused as to what we need. Anyone with electrical sense out there who wants to help me figure it out? </span></div>

become my farm<st1:personname w:st="on">,</st1:personname> I was out on a
Sunday afternoon ride with my friends Tyanne Jurka and Catherine Garza

go to Valle de Angeles and were wandering around the countryside<st1:personname w:st="on">,</st1:personname> driving on dreadfully deeply rutted mud/clay roads

pothole after pothole<st1:personname w:st="on">,</st1:personname> road. At
times we drove on the wrong side of the road as we searched for the smoothest
places winding up the steep mountain towards the top. The van wildly moved from
side to side<st1:personname w:st="on">,</st1:personname> as we held on to the
grab bars on the ceiling. It was hard to
believe that we were barely crawling<st1:personname w:st="on">,</st1:personname>
yet the van jerked so wildly. Twenty
minutes later we arrived at the top. We took a right onto a small<st1:personname w:st="on">,</st1:personname> smoother<st1:personname w:st="on">,</st1:personname>
dirt lane and then we saw it. The view!"<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

I savored the soft smell of pine trees as I took in deep breaths and
suddenly the smell brought back old<st1:personname w:st="on">,</st1:personname>
very kind memories of my grandparent’s homestead farm in <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:city w:st="on">Buckner</st1:city><st1:personname w:st="on">,</st1:personname> <st1:state w:st="on">Arkansas</st1:state></st1:place>.

I think. What a wonderful smell. For a split second<st1:personname w:st="on">,</st1:personname>
I remembered grandpa Yancy. I remembered
the mornings that he would take me hunting when I was a small child. Grandpa Wallace set traps and every morning
he would go to check on the traps and see what was there. I remembered the soft<st1:personname w:st="on">,</st1:personname>
slightly damp smell of pine needles<st1:personname w:st="on">,</st1:personname>
as our feet crossed over them<st1:personname w:st="on">,</st1:personname> while
we headed to check out the latest capture.
I remembered how when I was stung by a wasp one day as I was climbing
over a split rail fence with him at my side.
I quickly remembered that he took already chewed tobacco out of his
mouth and carefully placed the saliva filled glob of “chewin’ ta-back-er” on
the sting. I remembered the instant
relief as the moist tobacco touched where I had been stung. I remembered his love for me. I remembered as he scooped me up in his arms
and told me everything would be alright.
All of this I remembered in a split second. The memory passed too quickly to define the
exact length of time<st1:personname w:st="on">,</st1:personname> but the
recollection of that the precious thought lingers on in my mind<st1:personname w:st="on">,</st1:personname> imprinted like it was yesterday."<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I fought for two years to purchase this property from a land owner who did not want to sell it but finally I wore him down. I am tenacious when I know I am right and have a purpose. This property has a purpose. I have planted hundreds of fruit trees on the property and now the fish pond which I have dreamed about as a ministry to feed the poor is coming into fruition. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The land had to be moved around and some hills cropped off and a valley filled in order to make this happen. The vision started years ago and now is almost complete. All we need is $2,500 to finish the job. The dam is built but we need cement, rebar, gravel and sand to finish the dam and we need baby fish to stock the pond and food to feed them. Soon we will be able to share the fish with local orphanages like we have shared the fruit with the poor. If you would like to help finish this project, please hit the donate button below. The pond will hold about 10,000 fish and will generate money and food for the ministry. I will be a fisher of men and a fisher woman...</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: start;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The basic penalty principle in the Bible is that when a person who is convicted of a crime they must make restitution to the victim of their crime. For example, the penalty for theft is four, five or seven fold restitution which goes directly to the victim.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Exodus 22:1 If a man steals an ox or a sheep and slaughters it or sells it, he must pay back five head of cattle for the ox and four sheep for the sheep. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
</div>
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">According to this verse the thief must pay his victim four times the value of what he has stolen if it is a sheep. I think that the extra compensation, what is above and beyond the value of whatever was stolen helps to make up for the cost of tracking the thief and bringing him to justice. This multiplied value return, also acts as a deterrent against thievery. A thief does not get caught every time he steals thus if he only has to pay back what he has stolen, he might decide to steal anyway, knowing that when if he gets caught, he can just give back the stolen goods. But because most men need penalties in order to learn, God's plan is the fourfold repayment. This places a bite in the punishment. It also reduces the economic benefits of theft.</span><br />

<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It is interesting that stealing an ox, gets additional restitution because an ox is used for work. So if you are stealing the tools that a man does his work with, then you must pay a bigger bite. Because it is a asset which can be used to produce an income stream into the future the ox is more valuable to its owner than a sheep would be. God is so fair! Stealing an ox makes the owner less productive not only for today but also for the lifetime of the oxen. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So if a thief steals your oven or your mixer and you are a baker then the repayment should be more (5x value) than if he steals your lawn furniture (4x value). As a professional baker your oven and your mixer is what make you money where you can feed your family, therefore the Biblical law requires five fold restitution. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Yet there are other values placed on other things.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: start;">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; color: #001320; line-height: 21px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If money or goods are stolen from a neighbor who is holding it for you then the penalty is less.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; color: #001320; line-height: 21px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; color: #001320; line-height: 21px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The scripture is clear that stealing to eat is not to be tolerated either. In fact stealing to eat has a larger penalty.</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: start;">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="text Prov-6-30" id="en-KJV-16571"><sup class="versenum" style="vertical-align: top;">Proverbs 6:30<b> </b></sup>Men do not despise a thief, if he steal to satisfy his soul when he is hungry; </span>31<sup class="versenum" style="font-weight: bold; vertical-align: top;"> </sup>But if he be found, he shall restore sevenfold; he shall give all the substance of his house.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When one steals to eat, it is a 7x penalty. At first this concept bothered me and then I realized that the Bible has much to say about eating. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In the Old Testament we see that we must consider God or we will eat and not be full and drink but still be thirsty. In other words our relationship with God directly effects what we eat or drink. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The New Testament says:</span><br />
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+6:26&version=KJV" style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="color: black;">Matthew 6:26</span></a> Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they? <sup class="versenum" style="vertical-align: top;">31 </sup>Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? </span><span class="text Matt-6-32" id="en-KJV-23315" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><sup class="versenum" style="vertical-align: top;"><span style="font-size: small;">32</span></sup><sup class="versenum" style="font-weight: bold; vertical-align: top;"> </sup>(For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. </span><sup class="versenum" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; vertical-align: top;"><span style="font-size: small;">33</span></sup><sup class="versenum" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: bold; vertical-align: top;"> </sup><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I will assume from these verses that the one who steals for food receives a worse punishment to cause him to get close to God, before he starts stealing for other reasons. God will take care of our food, drink and clothing if we will trust Him. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;"> </span></span><br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: start;">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">These penalties are very different from our modern system of fines and imprisonment. When someone is fined, the money goes to the state. So unless you have insurance against theft or unless your items are recuperated and returned to you (the thought of that makes me laugh in Honduras) you, the victim get nothing. When the criminal is sent to prison, innocent victims who were stolen from lose and lose and good people's taxes pay for the criminal to stay in jail. All of this is very unfair. In God's Biblical system the victim gets compensated for their loss and the thief is very inconvenienced. He must pay for his crime.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So that brings me back to the mirrors for the 1999 Ford F-350. These mirrors must be replaced where we can drive the truck. Shame on the guys who stole the mirrors and may God teach them a lesson with His method of justice which is much better than mine. And may the Lord send me replacement mirrors.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hundreds of people showed up at her wake and hundreds more at her funeral.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But there were those who could not attend and yet loved her and appreciated her.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Mercedes was not only a dentist but a humanitarian. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">She went into the prison with me to work on the 18th Street gang boys teeth.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Not many would have done that and in true Mercedes style she gave them a hard time for not brushing and flossing.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">She literally fussed at them and not many people can fuss at 200 gang members and get away with it. She was always so full of life in everything she did. Even with cancer in her lungs and brain, she worked up until the Wednesday the 13th before she passed away yesterday the 20th and fussed at every patient about "not flossing".</span></div>

So I was still asleep at 7:30 am which is very unusual for me. He needed me to correct the name on a Power of Attorney, which he is completely capable of doing, but if you can get help why not... right? I fixed it in about 2 minutes but while doing it started looking at emails coming in. 23 emails had already arrived early this morning.<br />
<br />
Today is supposed to be another day of paperwork. I have scheduled appointments, filed several things which needed to be filed, answered all the emails except for one, which I answered and said I would answer later. It was so long and so complicated it will take an hour or more to answer.<br />
<br />
Downloaded more reports off the internet from the government of Honduras, more stuff to fill out and to look up and to turn in. Probably another day of paperwork just on the one page which I downloaded. Have I said lately, I hate paperwork. Lord, please send me a bilingual intern who is very sharp and loves paperwork. This one wants to know how many people we helped with what over the last years since 2008 and all the numbers on dollars and cents financially. Who knows if I can pull all that together, but I must try.<br />
<br />
Worked on permission for a missionary to take her foster child to visit the USA.<br />
<br />
More paperwork... but in order to get it done, I must organize the ministry photos which I have been needing to do for a long time, so I just spent more than 2 hours on that project, now back to the paperwork which they need to be pasted onto... I am making a commitment to organize photos as I download them this year... Maybe that will happen, but maybe it won't. I am going to try. I do everything by date and then by subject. It works for me. That makes it easier for me to BLOG, which I was really bad at doing in 2012 and now I must catch that up also. But at least now I am organized enough to do it. Look for a lot of blogs in the coming days, all old, but all important. <br />
<br />
Posted the November 3, 2012 Blog... while eating 1/4 cup of raw almonds, a banana, 1/2 cup of blueberries and a cup of cantaloupe... all that for a mere 365 calories, 58 carbs, 15 grams of fat and 8 grams of protein... and while reading about Church Persecution In China... multitasking at it's best...<br />
<br />
Fixed a telephone problem with TIGO, the cell company here. The salesperson "made a mistake" and wanted the missionaries who called me for help, to deposit money into her (the salesperson's) personal account where she could fix it... Like dahhhhh who is going to do something like that. So when I call the salesperson and tell her to fix it, she says she can't so I sit there for a minute not saying anything on the telephone and I guess she decided I didn't like her answer. So she starts explaining to me how they (the missionaries) are going to deposit the money into her (the salesperson's) personal account and then she is going to take it out and pay the telephone taxes with it. Then she is going to send them the new telephones which they bought, which were supposed to go out on Monday and now it is Wednesday... but that since the invoice for the telephones were written up as cash and not as credit it had to be done that way. So I asked to talk to her boss and then all the sudden she could fix it but it would take several days, but she would do it, blah, blah, blah.... It never ceases to amaze me the corruption in this country. <br />
<br />
3:27 pm I was just told that my friend of 8 years, Doctor Mercedes Gale Lemor de Argueta is dead. I will miss her so much there are no words to explain. <br />
<br />
No more paperwork today, going to be with her family. <br />

One of the things which I decided this year is that I am going to log more and more of my activities. I am forgetting some great stories. Every day is an adventure, so I am writing more and more of it down an blogging it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This morning I woke up praying for my friend Mercedes and her family.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I remember going to sleep last night praying for her also.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Then I played secretary for my son for a legal document he needed first thing this morning.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Something about having the city go out and remeasure a property.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: start;">I sent my 84 year old dad a note a few days ago about a nasty guy that hacked his computer and sent me and several others an email. It seems he has a computer virus in spite of his virus softwear. I notified all of his friends where they would NOT open 2 infected emails which were sent out. He is proactive, mad about it, but kinda clueless where computer stuff is concerned, so I needed to help him. He seems OK now.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then I stared working on my paperwork for the Non Government Organization status in Honduras. What a pain in the posterior annex. I hate paperwork!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And I think the thing which bothers me the most is that they never even look at it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In the USA we fill it out on line, pay out $40 and are done with it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here it is this paper and that paper and you have to drop it off because there is no functioning </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Post Office and you have to make sure they sign that they receive it OR they say they don't and then you have the privilege of paying a late fee of $650 more or less.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I find myself praying for my friend Mercedes and her family, again.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Checking to see what money has been donated as of today... for the ministry.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I just set up this new donation page on Razoo and it has me so excited. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love getting surprise donations.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You can see it at http://www.razoo.com/story/Shechinah-Ministries</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and we will not be mad at all if you accidentally or purposefully hit the donation button and donate.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I ate a bowl of cantaloupe for breakfast. Then I logged into my http://www.myfitnesspal.com to log in my food for breakfast only to find that cantaloupe my be my new best friend at just 75 calories for 1 1/2 cups and only 5 carbs... This Fitness thing is another New Years resolution and I am doing well. I am down 11 pounds in 4 weeks. Can't tell it anywhere but in my face. I wish I could tell it in a few other places... but I will not quit..</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Prayed for my friend Mercedes and her family, again.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then I called and talked to her mom, Dona Vickie, who instead of thinking of herself and all that she is going through began to thank me profusely for the lasagna, green salad and garlic bread which I fixed for their family yesterday. I love Dona Vickie and Don Armando, they are like parents to me here in Honduras since mine are so far away. She assured me that they have more than enough food at the house for tonight, but I began to think after I got off of the telephone that this might not be true. She rattled off a list of things in the refrigerator but didn't mention any dessert. So I made a Lemon Bundt cake for them. It is on the counter waiting to be picked up and delivered to their home.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then I began working on my Blog Spot to post Dr. John's "blog" from a recent trip. It is up and readable if you would like to see it. http://teresasearcy.blogspot.com/ is the place to log on... but you already know that because you are already here and reading. I posted it on Facebook for all of my friends to read and see.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Mom called and we talked for a while. She and dad took the computer to the store to get rid of the virus, which I found yesterday.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Received two messages that people could not read the Dr. John Guest post... What did I do wrong?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Oh I didn't publish it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Prayed again for my friend Mercedes and her family.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I called and am working with a criminal attorney for a kid who is in jail for killing his brother-in-law whom he hardly could have killed since he was recently released from the hospital and had a bag to catch urine hanging from his side and was walking with crutches and had finger implants done because he had severed all four fingers on his right hand in a motorcycle accident. I am thinking, how can you pull a trigger holding a gun with 2 crutches and a urine bag hanging on your side with 4 severed fingers? Tell me, does this even remotely make sense? Oh well, this is Honduras and maybe by some miracle he did it, but why would a miracle happen to do something bad? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Oh and did I mention he takes care of his old man father and gives money to </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
his sister to pay for food for all of her kids? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He has been in jail for 2 years now with no trial. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Of course you guessed it they are poor. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So I found an attorney who will supposedly help him and let him pay later.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I found myself praying for Mercedes and her family again. </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Took a look at my emails and found a note regarding paperwork for non-profits and decided to notify my friends with other Non Government Organizations to get their paperwork done. More interruptions, but my time is not my own and it felt like the Lord wanted me to do that, so I did.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Also found that some translations were done for some of the people doing adoptions, so I forwarded them to them. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Wrote a cover letter to the Honduran Consulate about a letter regarding the approval for an adoption for a couple who are adopting from Honduras.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then I worked on the scheduling with the Hospital in Juticalpa for a OB-GYN surgery team in March. I had to write letters to the Medical College for the two doctors' reciprocal licenses. Spoke with the Director of the hospital, etc. Still more to do in this regard but I am one my way to having everything ready for this team. I still need a couple of nurses to sign on. Are there any takers?</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Received a message from another missionary about registering her gun. How to do it etc. Answered that to the best of my knowledge.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Prayed for my friend Mercedes and her family.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then I go on to work on paperwork for the DEI which is the Honduras version of the IRS. They want to know where all the wheelchairs went. Well, I did give them all away, but the paperwork is a real hassle. 4 or 5 pieces of paperwork for each chair. But I will get it done and since I am looking up the cities where we did the giveaways and on what date for the URSAC year end report it all goes hand in hand. </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
By now it was lunch time and Doctor Lizzeth Amaya a dentist friend and a mutual friend of Dr. Mercedes stopped by. Yum, Fried Breaded Eggplant and Italian Sauce.... She and I are both great friends of Mercedes and we are praying in agreement together for her healing. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Logged on and made a note of my eating, this news was not so good as this morning's news...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I ate 150 calories and 19 carbs, 7 grams of fat and 3 grams of protein, no wonder I like Italian food. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today I ordered paperwork on a child who was adopted and is now in her mid 20s and wants to find her birth mother. You can find her story on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/JenySalgadoGodoy</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Forwarding translated paperwork for my friends at Aaron's Mission Out Reach, AMOR, which means love, the Dakin family in Talanga. They are doing the same paperwork which I am doing but theirs is already done and my friend Peggy Perdomo translated it for them.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Called and checked on the ministry's new farm to see if the land had been mowed. It has, at least around the houses and to the front road. This is the new farm place donated for a children's home. It has 2 houses, several out houses, 2 garages and 3 tilapia ponds. Water has been moved from one pond to another, lots of tadpoles, lots of turtles and no fish. It is looking cleaner! Praise God, it needed to look cleaner.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I GOT MAIL from a new volunteer for SMART Medical teams. Sent him a quick note and think he will probably join us on some teams in the future.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now I find myself sending out Thank You notes to donors. I am doing it on the computer. I know, I know, how tacky, but I am sending cute little cards.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am hungry again... that is the problem with staying home and doing paperwork. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How about some homemade nachos, but just a small plate of them... </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Logged in to make a note and to my chagrin I find that a small plate of nachos has OMG I am going to have to fast tomorrow!!!!!! A small plate of nachos has 440 calories, 38 carbs, 32 grams of fat and 18 grams of protein.... I am now over my fat grams for the day... Bummer! No ice cream tonight! It is all my dad's fault! He taught me to love sour cream! I love it with baked potatoes, french fries, nachos, tacos, in fact I put sour cream in my cakes... Opps, my secret is out! That is my secret ingredient. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Lemon Bundt Cake which was made today had sour cream in it...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is now 6:00, I have been up for 12 hours, I am still in my jammies, I have not taken a bath, in fact I am still in bed and except for eating lunch with my dentist friend I have not seen anyone who is not family. Yes, we ate lunch here at the house and I was in my jammies and stinky, like I said, "she is a good friend." </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
While waiting for things to download and upload today, I have been looking at Pinterest off and on all day between jobs or maybe I should say simultaneously with my work. I have discovered that I have been away from the USA for too long. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I found some nifty things and even coveted one or two of them. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
This little darling is called a Ham Dogger, it makes hamburger meat into a hot dog shape...<br />
WOW, I love it!<br />

A lot of paperwork got done, but there is much more to do... I think tomorrow will be another day of paperwork and then perhaps I can get out for a few hours in the afternoon. </div>

Have I said that I hate paperwork? I do, it seems it is a necessary evil. </div>

of them are taken care of for me by Teresa, who runs S.M.A.R.T. (Surgical Medical Assistance Relief Teams).
She is in Honduras, and she organizes the interactions with the local hospitals
and government, including the purchase of necessary drugs and oxygen, volunteer
local support staff, temporary licenses and hospital privileges, in-country transport,
food, lodging and security (we travel with armed guards). She also keeps track
of my patients, most of whom require four or more staged procedures, and makes
sure they are there for us.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
All I have to do is scrounge up donated medical and other
supplies (including cosmetics for gifts for the nurses- VERY important), pack and
go. Oh, and pay for your ticket and $1,000.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Teresa really feels a strong calling to be here and help the
people, and is organized, forthright, outspoken, and willing to do whatever it takes.
She is also a gun aficionado, owns about fifty guns, and usually carries a Glock on our trips.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Teresa is originally from Arkansas, more recently from
Kansas City, and has been living full-time in Honduras for several years. She
is about five years older than me, and about a foot shorter, with long hair that is up in a bun for our trips. She is a minister,
and when not organizing medical missions, she works with orphanages, adoptions,
and trying to save the gang members of Honduras. At times she teaches Bible
classes in the gang prison (you can get a seven year sentence just for having a
tattoo- but most of them are real criminals).</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
A couple of years ago she took me into the prison, where I
removed a few bullets and drained a few abscesses from the ignored prison population. As an aside, the prison itself was
fascinating. The government had found it
expedient to simply put all the 18th Street Gang prisoners in one warehouse -
like building. Inside, the Gang was in charge. They built partitions, ran a
commissary, sat around watching TV or talking on their cell phones, or being entertained
by the women who were allowed in for a small bribe. The guards stay out of it.
The leader when I was there was Spider, a friendly and charismatic fellow, who
had a bullet fragment in his forearm that I removed first, so that I could then
work on lesser Gang members with more threatening problems. The power went out
while I was working there, so we went out into the prison yard and worked in
the dwindling sunlight. I finished under flashlight conditions. Spider later
got out of prison. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
As is usual, this trip I left with my two daughters,
Genevieve and Gabby, on the red-eye from Seattle to Houston on Wednesday
night. My goal is always to be asleep
before we are off the ground- a very important skill I strongly endorse. After
a three hour layover in Houston, we did the three hour jump to the Capitol,
Tegucigalpa. This time, we spent much of
the layover looking for pants- Genevieve was wearing shorts, having spaced out
the fact that in Honduras only prostitutes and confused American newbies wear
shorts. This being her twelfth trip, she really knew better. I wasn't all that worried, but she was.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The first thing you notice in Tegucigalpa is that the runway
is a little short. They REALLY stomp on the brakes. Every time. Comforting.
Passport control is also a pleasure, with more forms and stamping than you
would need to get into Cuba. Oddly, the thing that irritates me is that they
are sloppy with the visa they staple into the passport, and so it makes it
messy in my pouch. I hate that.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I should mention that I always wear a fanny pack when I
travel. Partly because of my obsessive need to always have my passport attached
to me. Well, let's be honest, my obsessive need to have ALL my stuff attached
to me. My kids have told me for years it
is not acceptable. I ignore them, but if
someone with more clout objects, I will need to get a new system.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
While waiting for my bags, I always run to the restroom,
just because that is my last chance in Honduras to actually flush toilet paper.
It is forbidden in our hotel. Turns out that having to throw toilet paper in
the waste basket really annoys me. Sorry, TMI. (To much information)<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We then exit into the sweltering heat and indescribable odor
that is Tegucigalpa. Teresa is there,
and everyone is looking out for the tall gringo doctor in the orange shirt,
which I always wear just for that reason. We hop into the truck, armed and
dangerous, and head over to Popeye's Chicken for lunch. There, of course, they
have an old man with a shot gun to make us feel safe.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
At this point the girls and I met our companions for this
trip- Alan, a Florida appellate judge, and his daughter Leah, who just finished
college and is headed to Nashville to pursue a career in music. They have both been heavily involved in various missionary
service projects, and are currently in the middle of a 7-week stint in Honduras
doing a number of different things. Alan
was an EMT in a former life, and has been in the ORs with Teresa's groups quite
a few times over the past 15 years. Even here, he runs several miles every morning
(I am way too cowardly to venture out in the streets myself), and is lean and
tan. Leah has long dark hair and big eyes, and the three girls look enough
alike to be sisters. Certainly the
Hondurans can't tell them apart.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The ride to Choluteca is about 2-3 hours, depending on
traffic. The road is a main north-south thoroughfare, meaning a two-lane
highway with multiple washouts and tank-trap sized potholes, with slow moving semis
and crazed Honduran drivers more than willing to try to squeeze down the
middle, forcing everyone onto the shoulder, where present. Shiver.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Our driver is José.
José requires some explanation. Teresa met José in 1998, when she was
down here after hurricane Mitch, which really devastated Honduras. At the time,
José was a member of the elite national police (the Cobras), and was assigned to Teresa's
protection detail. He caught her attention by finding and returning a LOT of money
that fell out of her stuff in the truck. Actually RETURNED it. Unheard-of. Over the
years he became her personal security guard, then essentially adopted son. He is now an attorney, who works with the adoptions,
among other things. A couple of years ago, he ran for Congress here. Despite
his legal work, he still comes on our missions (or "brigades" as the
locals call them), drives, provides security, but most important,
entertainment. He is rotund, happy, and hilarious. My girls think he is almost like a cartoon character. We
love José Benavides.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
On my last trip, José was driving the other car, and since
Teresa's shoulder had been broken in a freak slip-and-fall at the grocery store,
I was pressed into driving. I really prefer not to. REALLY. I am way too gringo to be comfortable on the
Honduran roads.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We then arrive in Choluteca, a town of about 100,000, with
the infrastructure for about 20,000. Of the three intersections with traffic
lights, one is broken. We make a pit stop at our hotel, the Hotel Flamingo, run
by some of my favorite people in the world. Sonya, although undergoing chemo
for cancer, makes wonderful food, the rooms are clean, the compound is
safe. Their daughter, also Sonya, is in
medical school in Tegucigalpa, having been inspired by the hundreds of mission
team members who have stayed in her hotel over the years.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I should add here that I have three rules while in Honduras:
Only drink what Teresa gives you, only eat what Teresa gives you, and only go
where Teresa tells you. I have never
been sick, and never felt in any danger with those rules. Teresa knows
everyone, from cabinet level ministers to gang leaders, and is well positioned
to escape from most situations that could come up.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Then it is off to the Hospital Del Sur. When I first started
coming to Honduras, they basically gave us a large room with an OR table. We
had to supply all the other equipment and personnel, including anesthesia and
nursing, sterilizing equipment, and, of course surgical instruments and
supplies. Now, all we really need is me and my three suitcases of disposables
and instruments. They supply me with nurses, anesthetists, recovery staff,
gowns and drapes. It is really nice, and all these are unpaid volunteers from the local hospital.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The nurses are great. They giggle incessantly, amused by the
giant gringo who seems incapable of remembering the names of any instruments despite
having done hundreds of cases here. They
are mostly very short and very round, and my daughters observed that I am like
Willy Wonka surrounded by oompa loompas. They donate their time, all for love
of the children- and a few make-up kits.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The anesthesia in Honduras is mostly provided not by MDs or
nurses, but by anesthesia techs. They really work hard for us as well.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Despite the upgrade, it is still primitive. We have frequent
power outages, water only about half the time, terrible lighting, no patient
gowns (we wrap them in thread bare sheets). One memorable trip, the power went
out during an emergency C-section in the adjoining room, and by far the best
flashlight available was my Blackberry. Literally.
Shiver, shiver.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Triage is the first step. This trip, we did that in a truly
sweltering hot-box of a room designed as a barracks-like dormitory. I am sure
it was 110 degrees, and clearly 100% humidity. At this point it became<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
clear that I was to be overwhelmed. There were 26 patients
who needed advanced-stage procedures- in other words patients I could simply NOT
turn away, and three first stage patients who had each been turned away twice
before, and two thyroid patients who really could not wait. That made 31. Translation: not much down time.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
My ear patients and their families are like a fan club. They all know each other, support each other,
and make sure everyone knows when I will be back. I love them. They love me. </div>

Due to a combination of genetics and nutritional issues, the
incidence of microtia is much higher in Latin America than in the US. Microtia is a birth defect where the outer
ear is missing or misshapen. Often the inner ear works, but since there is no good ear canal,
they really can't hear from that ear. If they have one good ear, however, it is
the missing ear that is the problem much more than the hearing They have a special highly perjurative insult here for kids with
the condition, and they really can't go to school. The reconstructive surgery
takes multiple procedures, and they often look worse before they look better. The interesting thing is, once they have
had their first procedure they generally WILL go to school.</div>

The kids are SO sweet and SO cute and SO grateful. As far as we can tell, I am currently the
only MD who does the surgery in Honduras. Since to go to the US for the several
procedures would be around $40,000 just for the medical bills, plus getting there, it
is truly out-of-reach for Hondurans, whose average per capita income is $1600. Sometimes
I have wondered if my time would be better spent on something more life-threatening, but this surgery is so
life-CHANGING for these children that I have decided I should stick with it.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We started surgery about 6:30 Thursday night, and six cases
later we were back to the hotel before 1:00 am, which was a major victory. Sonja
sent over dinner, which was delicious.
Leah had the opportunity to scrub in on a thyroidectomy. That also
included the opportunity to turn green and have to sit on the floor to
recuperate. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We then took quick showers and went to bed. The challenge
for me at the hotel is that the bathroom is truly smaller than those in some campers
I have visited, and the toilet area is certainly smaller than a
port-a-potty. And I am large. Between the elbows and knees banging on the
walls and doors, and the whole toilet-paper-in-the-waste-paper-basket issue, I
am, to say the least, a little challenged.
The unheated water was refreshing, and I slept like the dead until about
7:00, when the dulcet tones of José yelling awakened me.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
After a Sonja breakfast (hot cakes, ham, fruit, eggs, OJ,
rice and beans), it was back to the hospital. First we had to see all the post ops
from the night before, all of whom were doing great. There was also the
obligatory photo op. Katarine, who is
now 12, is still trying to figure out how to smuggle herself to America in our
suitcases. She thinks the girls would be
amazing big sisters. I can’t say that I disagree.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
When we met Katarine, she was eight, VERY personable, and
full of life and love. She was apparently unrestrainable, and tore open her
chest incision dancing so it healed poorly and had to be re-done. Twice. She has given me numerous gifts, mostly food and
little painted wooden touristy things. Her mother is one of the chieftains of the
Dr. John fan club, and organizes everything with the others. Often, if Katerine is discharged but we are still there the next
day, she will show up in her finest confirmation-style dress for more photos. We
love her.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Friday we did fourteen cases, including three first stage
procedures. These procedures start with an incision in the chest, going down through
the muscles and exposing the ribs. The place where the ribs attach to the sternum (breastbone) has some excellent
cartilage, just there for the harvest. You have to be careful to separate the
under surface of the ribs from the underlying tissue in order to avoid tearing
the sac around the lungs (the pleura), or puncturing a lung. Both of those things are considered
"poor form". No one wants to lose style points. No problems
encountered.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Anyway, once you have the cartilage, you need to whittle it
into the correct three-dimensional shape for a frame, and then bury the frame up
in the place where you are building the ear. People are always fascinated by the whole idea of making an ear out of a
rib. I explain that an ear is one thing,
but if you are good, you can make a whole WOMAN out of a rib.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The cartilage heals to the skin, and on subsequent
procedures I have to fold skin under to bring the ear out from the head, make
an earlobe, and thin out the flap. In the USA, I would operate about every six weeks or so. In
Honduras, they have to wait for my next trip, so usually about six months. They
are surprisingly patient with the long waits. I am used to Americans, for whom
this kind of long-term process would be maddening.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Anyhow, we moved right along. All the rest were old friends
of mine, some of whom needed major work, some minor.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The local medical director assigns a public service MD to
help us, and she did ALL the paperwork for me.
All I did was operate, eat, and rest.
If only my practice at home were like that! It is really a way to experience the pure joy
of surgery, as long as you don't get upset by the little things, like the poor
equipment and lighting.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Friday night's bathroom adventure was enhanced by towel
forgetfulness (I had to be rescued), and then a small mishap. While doing my
ballet act to simultaneously dry myself and avoid touching any surfaces (germ phobia),
I slipped and caught my ankle on the lip of the shower. As it turns out, that
edge was quite sharp, slashing my ankle in three places. Bloody mess. Not being interested in infection, I broke
out the first aid kit, cleansed and dressed the wounds. Doctor-speak for putting
on a bandaid. Actually three, in this
case. Near death experience. I'm really
much better with other people's blood. Mine should stay INSIDE its vessels.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Saturday morning started with Sonja's famous French toast.
Really more like a pastry, it is so sweet. Once again, all of the post-ops were
doing well, even the three who had rib harvesting were only using Tylenol for pain. Everyone went home.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
During rounds, Gabby started to feel woozy, and spent the
morning sleeping in the anesthesia lounge. She woke up when the OB/Gyn guy asked
the girls if they wanted to watch a procedure.
Turns out it was a D&C, and they were totally grossed out.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
For me, the day consisted of nine procedures, all upper
stages, and all of which went well. I had a little anxiety as the day wore on
and supplies dwindled, but we made it to the end. In fact, we finished by 6:00, earlier than on most trips. The grand total of cases
for the trip was twenty-nine, the most ever.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We then went back to the hotel, and after dinner I unloaded
and re-organized all of my stuff for about an hour while the girls watched TV,
showered, and was in bed by 9:30, and in a coma by 9:32.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Sunday morning was the reverse trip, starting with a quick
trip to see my patients from Saturday, more French toast along with eggs and tamales,
then on the road for the trip back to Tegucigalpa. The traffic was not as bad, but the potholes
were even more annoying, since we had to slow down so often and so suddenly.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Leaving Honduras is typically inefficient. There are three long lines to check in. The
first is for anyone traveling with a minor, where they make sure that you have
the notarized authorization to travel from the other parent. It is interesting to me that THIS is
the point that they check for that. Why here?
It seems that checking before I left the USA, or perhaps on ENTERING
Honduras would make more sense. In any case, that is the system.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Next is the standard airline check-in, same as at home. The
third (and longest) line is to pay the airport tax, which also seems
unnecessary - why not just add it to the ticket price and get it from the airlines,
like everyplace else in the world? It
DOES give them the chance to staple a couple of other receipts to our boarding
passes. They love that.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We always eat lunch at the airport McDonalds. Why McDonalds?
Why not? One trip a less-compulsive/paranoid team member left her passport and ticket
in her backpack slung on the back of her chair at this point, and someone
managed to make off with it while she was sitting there. No problem, with
Teresa there to pull strings, and with the US Embassy's assistance, she was
able to get new documents and leave on a later flight- five DAYS later.
Passports, wallet, tickets are all high on my list of things that do not leave
my body.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This is not the end of the red tape. After lunch, it is back
in line to have passport and papers checked by two separate people, three feet apart,
then the usual security screen.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Finally, we get through to the boarding area. Of course, to
actually board they have one person to take the ticket, a government agent to check
the passport, an airport official to collect the tax receipt, and another place
to hand check the bags of anyone who meets profiling criteria.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I always try to stay awake on the flight to Houston so that
I will be tired enough to sleep to Seattle.
This trip I was lucky enough to have secured seats in the very last row,
so reclining was not an option in any case. I perhaps didn't mention that one
of the reasons I try to get to sleep so quickly on planes is that I am so
cramped at 6'4" that I am just too uncomfortable if awake.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
In Houston we traditionally enjoy the authentic cuisine of
Panda Express. As usual, I had the choice between the one hour layover or the
three and a half hour one. Having had some rather unpleasant near-misses (you have to clear customs in Houston), I have
opted for the latter.</div>

children assigned to my missionary friends.
IHNFA called me four days ago and asked for some help finding a good foster
home for an 11 month old. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">I could hardly drag myself out of bed this
morning, I was up until after 1:30 am working on book work last night, after a
long day at IHNFA and I was so tired, but I finally did dragggggggg myself out
of bed albeit, 10 minutes before I knew I MUST leave the house in order to get
be on time for my scheduled appointment at Denny’s with my gringo friends. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">I found 500 lempira ($25) and added it to my purse;
I just set it inside my purse, not in my billfold. After all I was in a hurry, I sent Jose to add
gas to my car with a different 500 lempira bill, and while he was gone, I took
a shower, brushed my teeth, brushed my hair, threw on some clothes all in 10
minutes and walked out the door as he was arriving back at the house. I arrived
at Denny’s before everyone else, but still later than agreed upon. Whew, they started off with a typical late
Honduran day.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">We (Melissa the missionary and I) had a
scheduled appointment at IHNFA (Honduran children’s services) at 9:00 am but
when I asked if it was “Honduran time” or “gringo time” I was told “Honduran
time”, so we ate at Denny's talked with old friends, met new friends, called
and were told they were ready to see us and then headed out to IHNFA at
10:30ish, Honduran speak for 9:00 am. It
was no surprise to me that when we arrived they were not in the office, even though
they told us they were waiting for us on the telephone.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">The missionary’s husband has spent the last 3
days “buying a car”. So we left him with the man selling the car, an attorney
and the attorney’s brother and the Denny’s bill. I gave him 100 lempira for my part of the
breakfast and 20 lempira I laid on the table for a tip. Melissa and I left and headed out for our day
of adventure.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">First we met with two of the mothers of two of
the children who are “at risk” and need the “temporary shelter” of a foster
home. Mother #1 was raised for 17 years
in the IHNFA home and at 18 years old was sent out to live on the streets, with
no family and no home and the only place she had ever known as a home was IHNFA
Los Casitas. One month later she was pregnant.
Mother #2 also had lived in Los Casitas, but I am not sure for how long.
She is still 18 and has her baby also.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">Both of the mothers are 18 years young, there
are no fathers in the picture. Mother #2
had a relationship with a common street thief and he was unceremoniously killed
not long after the mother found out that she was pregnant. Both mothers were very loving towards their
babies and both wanted what they think is best for their babies, however the
best thing is NOT for the children to be living on the streets of the most
dangerous country in the world. We
introduced them both to the missionary nurse who is willing to raise the
children, on a farm in the country. At
first both were adamant that they wanted their children NOT to go with anyone
else to live. Mother #1 walked out of
the room and left. Mother #2 stayed and talked and asked for money. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">But while this all this was going on, Mother #3
came in with a 3 month old beautiful little boy. Mom #3 is a “crack cocaine” mom who was
nursing her baby and “taking good care of him”.
He surely is beautiful, looks healthy and fat, but a crack mom? If she really is a crack mom, how is he so
healthy looking? She cried because they
were going to take the baby away. It was
pitiful. They ask mom #3 for the baby’s
birth certificate but she has never registered him. So he exists but doesn’t exist on paper. I have no idea how the social worker and the
attorney make these kinds of decisions all day every day. It is discovered from reports that mom #3 and
her husband leave the baby where ever and wander the streets at night drunk and
high. Many neighbors have reported them
and thus she was picked up. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">Mother #3 was barely out the door when through
the window we hear howling (the kid) and screaming (the mom). The social worker
stands up and looks out the window just in time to see Mom #4 with kid #4a and kid
#4b. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">While the screaming and howling is going on
outside the building, we find out that Mom #2 had already given her baby to another
woman. That woman went to the Registry
of Persons and that woman lied saying the child was hers and got a birth
certificate on the child. That happens a
lot here, more than I care to think about.
Meanwhile that other woman, who is there fighting for the baby and saying
how she can take good care of her, the woman whom the Mom #2 had given her baby
to, who had illegally gone in and applied for the birth certificate for the
little girl, saying she was her mom, walks back into the attorney’s office and
asks me for money. “Please, I do not
have money for a bus!” So she is here
fighting for the baby because she can give her a “good home” and take “god care
of her” but she doesn’t have $1 for a bus ride across town. While she is still standing there “convincing”
me that I need to give her money, Mom #4 is coming in the door, her son is the
screaming kid which we have been hearing outside the window. Mom #4 has in tow,
kid #4a her son and kid #4b is a beautiful little girl with wide eyes who never
made a sound the whole time she was there.
<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">Mom #4 was turning her son over to IHNFA
because he didn’t want to go to school, wanted to be with his dad who is a “drunk”
and was running around with “gang members”.
The attorney by this time has gone
outside and physically picked up child #4a in his arms and carried him in like
a 2 year old with him screaming and kicking all the way. Tears flowing, the attorney sat the 9 year
old down in a chair and he continued kicking at the desk and wailing. So now we have hard shoes kicking against
metal, mom #4 screaming, kid #4a howling, kid #4b wide eyed and beautiful and the
missionary and I, the social worker, the attorney, a male helper and the fake birth
certificate, not real mom all in a room the size of a very small postage
stamp. Melissa the missionary and I sat
there watching the show. I looked over
at her and she had tears welling up in her eyes. I am watching the show, thinking, “This kid
needs some good discipline and a lot of the Word of God.” <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">The social worker looks at me and asks what I think;
I respond this is a spiritual thing and a discipline thing. She nods her head in agreement. She tells me she is a Christian. I am thankful. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">The attorney stops mid-stream and asks if I
have found a home for a 9 year old boy who does NOT have AIDS. But his mom and dad are dying of AIDS and his
little brother and sister 2 and 3 years old are in an AIDS clinic/home already,
they too are dying. He is hoping to get the
boy placed where his mom and dad will know that he is safe and sound with a
home to grow up in, before they die.
According to medical people mom’s death is imminent, so there is a huge
hurry and of course they want someone who is willing to allow him to visit mom
and dad until they die. And what is left
unsaid is that after they die, all the family members who currently do not
exist because there is medicine to buy and caskets to buy, will show up to
claim the child as soon as mom and dad are in the ground, because he is old
enough to work and he is a boy and he can contribute his money to their family. Does anyone want a 9 year old little boy?<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">Without any regard for the conversation taking
place, the “fake mom” for child #2 is still asking for money but she has been
shoved out the door by now yet she continues to pop her head in and out of the
door. The attorney shoos her head and shoulders
out of the room, her feet and legs were already outside. By now there are about 7 other people
gathered in the hallway to watch as the show unfolds. The attorney slams his hand down on the desk;
the kid quits crying for a second and then starts it up again. I look at the
missionary, she looks at me. The
attorney sends all the others down the hall, but they only partially comply,
moving a few feet down the hall and edging their way back towards us to see
what is going to happen. The attorney gets
up, crawls over the screaming kid’s legs, who is still kicking the desk, crawls
past the other man who is helping to control the kid (lol) and then crawls over
my legs and the missionaries legs, passes by mom #4 who is still mad as a wet
hen, past beautiful little girl #4b and disappears down the hall, herding all
the people standing in the hallway as he goes.
<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">You might be thinking, “Why doesn’t he just
shut the door?” The reason is that it is
83 degrees, noon and high sun, roof with no insulation under it, one window, a
room the size of a postage stamp about 8 feet by 7 feet, replete with 2 desks,
5 chairs, 6 adults and 2 children and head and shoulders of yet another adult
popping in and out. Oh, and I almost forgot
body odor and stinky diapers. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">The street mom, mom #2 takes advantage of the attorney
being busy, remember she is the one who has the 11 month old, whose father was
a street thief who was killed, walks back in and asks me for money, which I
declined to give to her. She walks out
again. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">The attorney still is not back. So we chat with the social worker who says
her dad wanted her to be a nurse but she wanted to be a social worker. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">Another lady who came with mom #1 walks in and
asks me for money. She explains that she
is a street missionary and lives on donations.
I explain to her that I have not cashed a check today. This is my normal way out for the 20 times a
day which people ask for money, except for the days which I do cash a check and
then I just stay home. She explains that
she will have to walk to downtown if I don’t give her money; I explain AGAIN that
I have not cashed a check today. She
kisses me goodbye, holds my face in both of her hands, and smiles with every
other tooth missing, her which probably have been touching dirty diapers are
now holding my face, she kisses me again on the cheek and heads off out the
door to catch a private cab which is 3 times as expensive as a bus. Go figure! Of course one of the others was excited to
tell me about the private taxi; just where I would know that she really didn’t need
the money, but I am sure they expected a reward for the information. Meanwhile several people ask Melissa the
missionary for money. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">The attorney walks back into the room and starts
caressing kid #4’s head and talking to him and he calms down. He has been screaming most of this time. The
social worker asks him a question and he says that mom is abusive to him. She (the mom) starts screaming at him and he
starts making “go to hell” eyes at her. When
he furrows his eyebrows, I finally get a good look at him to see that his forehead
looks like he has been dragged across asphalt or rocks. Mom #4 continues telling how he refuses to be
obedient and he is always in the streets and won’t go to school and he calls
her a liar. They give him a pencil and
paper and he starts writing like a 2<sup>nd</sup> grader even though he has said
he is a 4<sup>th</sup> grader. They asked
him his name and he tells them one thing, then mom says he is lying and his
name is something else. Who should we believe?
She is asked if she has a birth certificate for him to prove his name,
but she has none. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">I look at the missionary and she no longer has
tears in her eyes. Thank God, I was
thinking that this whole thing might be too hard on her, but we still had not
finished our business. How could we with
all of these interruptions. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">The street mom, Mom #2, who has the 11 month
old, whose father was a street thief who was killed, walks back in and asks for
money, which I declined to give to her for the 3<sup>rd</sup> time. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">It is decided that we need to go talk to the
judge at the children’s court to see if we can have a little boy who is 2 years
old given over into the foster care of the missionary. We get up to go. The hall is once again filled with people,
each of which looks us over as we walk out the door.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">We go out to the car, but of course someone has
parked behind us and we cannot move until they come out of whatever office they
are in to move their car. We finally get free to leave and Melissa the
missionary looks at me and says, “I don’t pray for you enough. I need to pray harder for you.” I laugh.
It is now 1:15 and we head to the courthouse. On the way, I decide to stop and use a clean
bathroom for a minute and then decide to leave my car and take a cab because the
Kid’s Court is in a bad neighborhood and you have to park several blocks
away. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">I call about seven taxis and all are busy. Finally I call a friend of one of the taxi
drivers whom I know and used to trust, until this afternoon I trusted him
anyway. The guy shows up in a 1918 model
taxi with no shocks, no air conditioning and the windows rolled down. Melissa the missionary and I get in, my butt
hits seat springs and they are not comfortable.
I pull my gun out of my purse and
place it between my legs for easy access in case I need it. The taxi driver visibly gulps. I call the friend who referred him to me and
tell him that it really is not correct that he referred me to a taxi with no windows
and no air conditioning, it is not safe in Tegucigalpa and he knows that. He says he knows, but he is his friend and it
will never happen again. I am sure it won’t
happen again at least until the next time he can’t do a run and refers him
again, two taxi telephone numbers off my list.
The taxi driver drops us off, I give him the 85 lempira plus a 15
lempira tip and he speeds off. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">We go into the courthouse, wait for the papers
on the case. Chat to pass the time and
then go up stairs to the waiting room to see the judges. My phone rings with a problem about two
children siblings who were “rescued” by IHNFA and escaped and now have to be
re-rescued. I am told that they want to
go to a children’s home where the other two siblings are living. Since the missionary who the children escaped
and ran back to wants them in a safe place, she called me to help with the
details. The waiting room is about 100 degrees,
several moms and dads waiting to see the judges. A case worker from another ministry was with
a little girl and her mom with AIDS, and there were many other cases of moms
and kids. Two teens walk in escorted by
armed police guards, two different teens walk out escorted by armed police
guards. Melissa the missionary and I sit
and sweat. The place stinks. I call IHNFA and arrange for the children to
be turned over to the children’s home on Thursday. By now I am bored and hungry, I pull out a
piece of candy for myself. I give some
kids in the waiting room some candy. About
an hour later we go in to see the judge.
He agrees to what we need. We are
told to bring in paperwork next week. He
also agrees to the rescue of another kid who really needs rescuing. We leave, go downstairs and wait for Jose to
pick us up in his car with windows and air-conditioning. I didn’t want to give another unknown taxi
driver a heart attack by pulling out my gun and placing it between my
legs. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">We then went to the Attorney General’s office
where we give them the paper with the order to “rescue” the boy at risk. It is basically a capture order but since it
is for a child it is called a “rescue order”.
They agree that they will rescue him when they can. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">Completely worn out we went to TIGO to pick up
Melissa the missionary’s two new telephones.
On Wednesday we spent more than two hours filling out the paperwork and
were supposed to go in and just pick them up.
That was a joke! We spent another
two hours redoing the paperwork and getting everything tweaked and then off to
eat Chinese. We still did not get the
telephones which were promised for Thursday afternoon. Now they will be sent by courier sometime
next week. I have 100 lempira which says
that it won’t happen… but that is the plan.
<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #9fc5e8; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="color: #444444;">Chinese food was good and since we had not eaten
lunch we were starved. Jose dropped me
off at my front door and Melissa the missionary and her husband took off in
their newly purchased car. Before Jose
could get the car parked, I was asleep, so I am writing this early morning
Saturday but posting it late night Friday… The wonders of blogging! <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
