JB Obviously, your daughter is safe and sound within your grasp. Until you have spent 4 frantic days not knowing if your child is alive or dead, do not pass judgment on me or mine. I agree the school is an excellant educational facility for learning the art of medicine, but i have concerns that need to be addresses concerning their responsibility to the safety of my child. As a mother you well know that your child may be an adult, but they will always be your child. My young adult was heartsick about leaving those people behind, but of what use would she had been, but a further drain on an already bad situation. When she left that island she gave away everything that she felt they could use out ofher supplies. Furthermore, they were not the first off the island, they waited in line behind the locals . The hotel was nice, but they were packed 10 to room with rain soaked floors. However she did have a roof over her head, which she did not have for several days during a level 4 hurricane. How may hurricanes have you been through in a foerign country? Also, they were not the first to be flown home. They stood in line with every other person there trying to get there own tickets home. They had no one "holding their hands" through out this ordeal. You may call them whiners, but i call them heroes! I was told through out this ordeal that smu was taking care of all arrangements to get them back home, but i received many conflicting statements from them. I am thankfull to god for taking care of my child.
