Cancelled

Tims trip was cancelled last night. Seems the price of diesel went up to $100 US Dollars per gallon. Yes, $100. That's not a typo. Food is also scarce and the costs are sky high, leading to much rioting and violence in Port Au Prince and elsewhere. With diesel so high, the hospital where Tim was going to work can't afford to run their generators, so there is no electricity for the operating room and therefore of course, no surgeries can be performed. He got a call sometime during the night last night, and he will be returning to San Antonio from Miami this Sunday.
