Bone tired and going to bed listening to bacchete music blasting outside the window. Apparently this goes on every night until 3 am. Everyone very friendly and we are totally safe. Got the OR schedule set up for tomorrow. 40 patients who were more critical airlifted out yesterday and today a 30% burn pediatric patient was choppered out after being transported to the hospital for hours in the back of a truck.

  1. The only good thing about the music is that is shows people are trying to get back to some normalcy...but it doesn't help the surgeons get their much needed rest!! It's also good to know that people are able to get airlifted in hopes of getting the help they need. Good luck in the OR today...sounds like you both are really creating some structure there and already making a huge impact. Sending prayers and love from home. xo

  2. Hey Dr. Pfeifer. We are keeping up with your blog on Haiti. It sounds very interesting and we can't wait to hear more about your experiences down there. Paul and I are very proud of what you and the other doctors are doing and we'll keep you in our prayers every day. Take care and stay safe.
