The medical mission team's hard work has been considered successful so far. They were able to treat and provide care for almost 260 people on Tuesday, and Haitians are walking from five to ten miles away to get treatment at their clinic.
The team continues to see many fractures, instances of wound debridement and infection, and general medical concerns. Currently preparations are being made to send a second team to Haiti to continue in the effort to provide care.
Team leader Mike Thralls and his wife, Melanie, got a special surprise this morning when Mikenso D'Haiti.
The Thralls hosted Mikenson, 12, on two occasions when he came to Indianapolis for medical surgeries.
Mikenson and his family live on the Haitian coast more than 40 miles northwest of Port-au-Prince. It was a very nice surprise for the Thralls family!
Cumulatively, the team is well and working hard more than two weeks after the devastating quake.
