Edna is just a remarkable lady and we are honored to have her in Hargeisa doing what she does best healing the nation. This is such a great video and we need more stuff like this to open the eyes of the world and the rest of the international community because we need people like Edna in this planet and of course the person who did the film on her, for releasing her values and seeing the light in her. He just didn't film it by an accident.
I wanna thank you for this. -
Edna has won all the respect I can summon for anyone. I know I will meet Edna. I wonder how to solve the water problem? Surely there is a way to help, the more your video makes it's way into the hearts of vast numbers of viewers. People can help; want to help, once they know.

For those who would like to help, the first place to check out is the hospital's website:
www.ednahospital.netfirms.com
Edna told me that they are always looking for committed volunteers, especially Obstetricians, Midwives and Pediatric Nurses with special training in Premature Baby Care. You will never forget the warmth, generosity and strength of the Somaliland people.
If you can't make it to Somaliland, and would like to donate money or medical supplies, contact Friends of Edna, a group located in Minnesota.
The treasurer is Anne Gilhuly and her email is gilhulya@optonline.net.
Thanks!-
