Piterly and his sister were 2 of the first students when the Institution of the Improvement of Life Through Education started in 2006. He's now reached the 6th grade and is preparing to take the National Exam in Haiti in June.

I am what is called an internist. I care for chronic problems in adult patients. Do you speak French and Spanish? I speak a little French and am trying to learn some Spanish. English is difficult, keep up your hard work

Hello Suzanne and hello Kelly. Thank you very much for all that you have done for me.

Yes, I like to play soccer. Suzanne, what kind of doctor are you? I am learning English but I am not fluent yet. Someone is helping me write me.

Kelly, thank you so much for helping me with the passport!

Thank you again, Piterly
