In February I:
Went to Dubai
Vaccinated Poppy
Vaccinated 5 cats in Topala
Found Lola- gave her to Laura all vaccinated but full of worms - and she died.
Tried to get Lina a job with the YMCA in America - had it in the bag but we couldn't get a notarized certificate from the Government saying she wasn't a criminal in time.
Won the US Embassy Grant for the Lia-Cimislia Project: Cimislia Micro University for Micro Business - with HUGE help from Stelian Rusu at the Embassy
Got ProCredit to Topala and 4 farmers got loans
Waited for 4 days for Radu's pigs to arrive. Eventually, the most-pregnant sow went into labor, worked for 12 hours, and was unable to dialate. Nothing was done for her - and in the morning it was decided that she was going to be killed for her meat and that all her piglets were dead. I was devastated and then went home. The other 2 pigs gave birth without problems and are nursing 14 piglets.
