This article s about in Port-Au-prince Haiti at a fly-infested clinic one man is left to care for all the patients alongside a tuberculosis sanitarium. Pierre Louis Monfort is left alone to care for patients all alone after the earthquake. The 50 nurses and 20 doctors died in the earthquake or have refused to return to work. There have been over 30,000 cases of Tuberculosis in Haiti and the disease is constantly spreading and this man has been overwhelmed and drowning in the pressure to save these people. His wife and children don't want him to get up everyday and go to work but he does out of pure care to save his country's people. This was from the NY Times Website.
