Just received an email from our doctor who runs the clinic in Gobert stating that they have another outbreak of Cholera with some deaths involved. They have a tent from Doctors without Borders, but need a nurse. His name is Dr. Librice and email is: drlibrice@hotmail.com
Gobert is not very far from Plaisance, and about 2 hours from Cap H. up in the mountains. If anyone can help him, that would be great!

Have a Dr. up there who is seeing 13 cases per day...one fatality was a child. Do not know what we will be facing when we get there. Hope to bring more IV fluids. Shipped some, but do not know if all has been used. Do not know what he is disinfecting with at present. Lots of unknowns at this point.
