My cousin in Haiti

My cousin Billy is in Haiti offering medical services and found a little girl to adopt. He was on the front page of Deseret News this morning. See this link deseret news for the article and a video. Such a miracle! (Just a clarification the article/video make it seem like he was down there shopping for a kid. That isn't the case. Yes, they were trying to adopt back home in Texas, but he was down there to offer medical services first and foremost. Things just fell into place that he found this little girl. Also, she didn't lose her parents in the earthquake, she's been in the orphanage since she was 3 months old.

Nate and Nicole said...: Wow, that's great for Bill & Amy. You don't have contact info. for them, do you? Suzy Andruk gave me their email address (I think it was a joint one) at some point, but I misplaced it. I'd love to say hi. If you do have it, will you email it to me?

Thanks!
