. This time was the medical team of five doctors, a
Apoteker, a masseuse and a Föderin for small children. Three psychologists
worked in office hours, but also gave home visits.
as usual, people were very grateful for the attention
was given to them and showered us with gifts for their part of the country.
There was a workshop on use of reusable nappies, which were donated by Imse Vimse
from Sweden.
The handwork workshops were successfully held a second time. This time
learned the visitors, as you felt the Christmas flu figures
have continued their embroidered images of Itahue. Participants get wonderful
works which were offered for sale in Santiago. It was very encouraging to learn
people because they had fun new crafts to

The beadwork workshop was very well attended mainly by
pubescent girls (but not only). You have made gifts from their work
for many of us.

Itahue and in the Cerrillo Bascuñan School. Voluntary

fairy tale.

Dear friends help us with the awareness and mitbegleiten,
We wish to report briefly how our Hilsaktion with the victims of the earthquake of 27 March 2010 "covers for Chile" on the last visit is run in May. We were there on the weekend of 1 and 2 May The work has been divided into sections, as before. We have continued to work with these three small and rather poor villages (Itahue, Puente Alto, Cerrillo Bascuñan Molina) in the south, the 182 Häusser have lost. The people we work with 2,800 people.
We were eighty volunteers to Total Area
this time was in the medical group there are eight anthroposophic physicians, three masseuses (Rhythmic massage), two dentists and two pharmacists. We can see in the two days, many patients. It was wonderful to see all patients who came for the second time felt better. Such as from the shock effects (anxiety, sleep disorders, digestive disorders, etc.) no longer there. It's amazing how these simple people who are openly for Anthroposphere Medicine and execute the instructions as efficient. Many have brought GIFTS: figs, fruit paradise, and even chickens!
The Waldorf teachers have continued to work with children. The children of the wheels with the fairy tale with a very open mouth and big eyes. So what they never get home. So you will work with parents so that they get from us and tell tales at home every night your child can. The nice thing is that even a very intensive work with parents and grandparents took place. It has made with you dolls, knitted, baked Bot, they have small, from the Waldorf school in Santiago knitted squares sewn together and sixteen of them very colorful blankets Created for these families. The elderly have embroidered images of their village as it was before, so they can edit the LOSS and creative.
This time we brought shoes and wool socks that have gathered our friends in Santiago, where it is now very cold and people are quite poor to buy good shoes can warm to. We took 1500Paare very good shoes that were new or almost new, with Ungerer 3000-4000 new stockings for the people of Itahue and have given everything personally. They were happy because they are huge I warm feet this winter. (Next time they will learn to knit itself Wollstrünpfe) We have also taken ten new beds and bedding, we gave specifically for children or elderly people who have the geschlaft ground until now.
This time we did not have as much money, so the construction work could also be modest. The module has built under the guidance of our architect a small house for a family with a twelve year old child whose mother was operated on just in the hospital, who have lived under plastic. That little house has a bathroom, kitchen and bedrooms in 18 square meters. The staff of "Covers for Chile" have a lot of trouble but was able to create one that was done. It still lacks many Häusser. There are families still live in tents or under plastic. Others have received an emergency by the state House, but there are mines with a layer of boards with no insulation, no flooring, no toilet, no kitchen. It's like a tent made of wood eighteen square meters. So not worthy, but the state can no longer make. He has already given 60,000 such apartments. The more donations we get, the more able to build decent small house we do.
We will continue to work throughout the year. We go on 5 And 6 June. Human relationships with the residents of Itahue deepen. You learn to live differently. Anthroposophy bring their fruit to the world.
Thank you very much, the help of so weitweg us. This material aid has spiritual understanding for the suffering of fellow human beings. We will continue to try as best we can get that these spiritual forces which we materialized from you, to help people live human can. Carina Vaca Zeller
