This morning I took a stress test on a treadmill to see if I had anr coronary artery disease as I prepare for the Boston Marathon. The doctor said I passed, and then he asked, "Do you want to go more?" I said, "Of course," so we went an extra few minutes at an increased incline and speed. He was happy. I was happy. We had a few good laughs along the way.
He and my doctor, Dan Driscoll, are amazing. They go to Haiti several times a year to work with the St. Rock Foundation https://saintrock.org/ to provide dignified health care for the people of Haiti. Haiti is one of those countries often beset my natural disasters and political instability.
Haiti has an interesting history. Upon declaring independence, Haiti has a singular place in world history. In 1804, it became the first independent nation in the Caribbean, the second democracy in the western hemisphere, and the second black republic in the world.
