Almost here!

Sorry it has been awhile since my last post. Things have been coming along great and I have really exciting news!! One of my favorite physical therapists, Deanna, will be coming on the trip. This is a HUGE blessing because Deanna is so talented at putting things together and she is super handy with tools. She will be a great help and I am so lucky to be going with her and sharing this experience with her.

I am starting to pack tonight..our little team of 3 leave one week from Thursday on the 5 am flight! Pray for smooth travels because we only have a 50 minute layover in Atlanta and there is only 1 flight/day to Santo Domingo.

Lots of other donations have come in and I just spoke with a coordinator for ME who was asking about final touches for some of the equipment being built (stairs, balance beam, etc). I can't believe years of planning is coming down to just a little more then 1 week away.

Last little bit of info...I tracked down a PT from the DR who I met 4 years ago when I was working with one of the children. He is a great PT who was so eager to learn what we did here for PT. I left a message where he works now and I am excited to hopefully get to bring him to our clinic to maybe help out a little bit. I think it will be great to have a PT contact in the DR! He is the one in the scrubs in this picture.

If you would like to make last minute donations, please do so through the paypal tab because I can access that much faster than waiting for the target toys to get here.

Thank you everyone for your support and I will update when we return!!!
