Hey, how are you today? Yes, we have babies with no parents. Much prayer needed. For now they will have us. We have great programs here! We have ladies and even a Grandfather that come in and interact with the babies. When they are stable they get rocked, touched, and spoiled by our "rockers". The Child Life people will match them up later when they are well enough. I just wish we could get everyone else. The hospitals there have no water for cleaning and the laundry is depleted. It is desperate. We need to pray for the caregivers that are doing all they can that are in the NO hospitals. I think all are going to be horrified when they see what has happened.

I'm fine...as fine as a guy can be at w***! In a way, I envy y'all. Some of my most memorable moments have been while holding and rocking my granddaughter...or my sons!
I probably need to go do something constructive here...thanks for sharing with us what you're doing.

Thank you for telling us what you have been doing to help. It's encouraging to hear something good coming out of the area. I work in a hospital on the West Coast, don't know yet if there is some kind of hospital to hospital exchange going on.
