Husband and Wife team bring medical aid to Haiti -





On April 9, 2010 a group of 7 doctors, nurses and volunteers left central Pennsylvania and flew to Haiti... a joint medical mission through Cure International and World Surgical Foundation. Beverly  and Jack Frankeny were part of  that group. Their mission was to bring free medical care to the earthquake victims and poor of that most unfortunate country.

The Faces

I have always been well aware that there are many persons in this world who live unfortunate lives...lives much different than mine.  These images were held in an area of my subconscious....abstract, remote, uncomfortable.

Now the images have faces.  Faces that haunt my thoughts, my dreams.  Images from a world so totally opposite from the one in which I live have taken hold of my psyche.  They are with me to stay.  I will never take a single moment of my life for granted.  It can all change in a matter of seconds.  I know this to be true.  It's in the faces, the faces of Haiti......

Beverly and Jack - Roba Dolce applauds your efforts in Haiti.
Thank you for letting us highlight your story of courage and giving.

  1. You are beyond unbelievable...

    I Love your blog and adventures or rather the help you give to fellow human kind....I know people from Haiti and who have family there....it is sad that this tragedy had to happen to bring to light the suffering they suffer and have suffered on a daily basis...most often at the hands of the Government that we (all peoples)look to for support and help...

    Thank you...
