Upon retiring as a Critical Care Nurse, my Mom volunteered. She now works and travels quite a bit with the Red Cross. I can't say enough about how much I respect this organization (and my Mom).

This has been heart breaking to watch. The sil of our friend just came back from helping in New Zealand, and upon arriving back home was asked to go to Japan. There has been so much devastation. The people of Japan are in our prayers. Thank you for sharing this link.

Good Morning! I love your post... I wanted to tell you that my husband was just outside of Tokyo when the earthquake hit. He is fine and they are re-routing him home to arrive Wed. evening. While he can't wait to get home, I know his heart is heavy leaving the devastation behind.
I feel very connected to what has been going on over there and have been trying to come up with a post. Would it be possible for me to borrow your image? I would also like to attach the Red Cross link as well.
I love hearing about your Mother, a serving helpful heart.
