Most were "caught" and returned to their homes, their fates uncertain. One of the most heart wrenching experiences of my life, that still haunt me to this day. Thanks for you post on this part of the world that seems to be in a time that few experience or come to know.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7774660407377629256.post-81104655709813285002008-03-27T23:05:00.000-04:302008-03-27T23:05:00.000-04:30You're right it is heartbreaking.

I thought a lot about her wiritng when I visited Labadee, the RCI island- it seems almost obscene that there is so much frolicking and frivolity in the sun on an island where people are dying from political violence, disease and poverty.
