That isn't how the world is supposed to work. We look out for one another, because you never know when we will be needing help in some capacity. BTW, there are people all across our country living in many different areas that are vulnerable to natural disasters of one kind or another- earthquakes, volcanoes, tidal waves, hurricanes, tornadoes, blizzards, etc. Do you expect them all to just be on their own when disaster strikes?

I apologise. I just felt something seemed wrong in this instance. I went to the website full of encouragement about donating but could find so little info it put me off. Then hearing the misleading quote & a fellow commenter saying the organisation was run by John David had me overly suspicious. I have great respect for this family & bringing up 19 children but there are things I wish they were clearer about sometimes. Always love reading your blog though, you have some super readers who have enlightened me to many things about your country that I never knew, & for that I am very grateful.

I only found this out after reading this blog & other commenters. However the reason I checked into it was simply to see how they organisation worked & what training was involved, which most organisations go into detail about on websites. The Medic Corps website has no info at all & that’s what bothered me & why I didn’t donate. Reading this blog the following day, I was enlightened as to the fact it was an organisation just set up by the Duggar’s to go to the Bahamas.They give the impression that the organisation is a medical one with Doctors & Nurses, this is clear misrepresentation as non of the Duggar’s or Bates are registered Doctors or nurses.Fuzzyferetnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6925412444274057427.post-39753126553141198662019-09-07T21:18:10.119-05:002019-09-07T21:18:10.119-05:00Austin has a small child, but he is there.Austin has a small child, but he is there.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6925412444274057427.post-9638940655264460462019-09-07T20:25:56.302-05:002019-09-07T20:25:56.302-05:00Hi fuzzyferet,

Just wanted to let you know why the comment referring to a quote by Jim Bob wasn't posted. I think that was the first comment of yours that we haven't posted, so we didn't want you to think that we don't like your comments. :)<br /><br />The article that you mentioned is a misleading article, and the quote wasn't a direct quote from Jim Bob. The tabloid used a click-bait method that makes readers think it's a direct quote when it isn't.<br /><br />Hope that clears things up. Have a great weekend.<br /><br />EllieLily and Elliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00941253435533935093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6925412444274057427.post-51035970236009312212019-09-07T19:47:34.321-05:002019-09-07T19:47:34.321-05:00You should research the Red Cross before you give ...You should research the Red Cross before you give them your hard-earned money.
