Well if appears we are down to the 11th hour. The totes are packed and ready to go. I was sure we would be taking 6 or 7 totes but the final count is 12. The Nicaraguan Ministry of Health decided to get very picky about who they allow to do medical missions in their country so last week was a whirl wind of emails back and forth with Keveta in Nicaragua and all the team here. We were finally able to satisfy their requests and got the official approval late last week. We thought this was done several months ago.
We leave for the airport at 2:30 AM tomorrow to catch our 5:30 plane. We will be in Managua by 12:30. Karl and Sue will meet us at Eppley and Melissa will leave from NY Friday. She will meet up with Suzie and the California Team in Managua and fly onto Puerto Cabezas with them.
We are all very excited to finally be leaving for this mission. I want to thank all of you for the many ways you have supported us as we have been preparing for this mission. Please continue to keep us and those we will be serving in your prayers.
We will try to blog as time and electrical service allow as we go through the next two weeks so keep checking back.
Dean
