She is a retired nurse. Going to take her skills there because there is a demand.

The team she is going there with is a GP doctor, a surgeon, 3 nurses and 3 nurse-assistants. & supplies.

I sometimes worry for her safety during some of her trips. Guatemala? Honduras?

I got admit....I would not go into some of the places she goes other than as an armed escort.

She's going as part of an NGO, I assume. They usually have security cover. Its okay.

Props to your mom and all the medical going over there. There making a difference in those people's lives, and I'm sure there's some form of security
