“We have a lot to mourn,” he said. “I have missing people with my family members.”

He said there are people he knows who have lost everything they owned, things they worked for all their lives and now, they are numb after another deadly earthquake hit the country.

“Numb because this is a way to survive and get past it because it goes back to back,” Ketan said.

In 2010, a deadly earthquake also hit Haiti. In the country at the time was Emory University Professor Ken Kane at Goizueta Business School.

“Our primary goal was really logistical support, opening up the airspace immediately after the earthquake which was critical,” he said.

Kane was the US ambassador at the time.

“The shaking was so violent that we stumbled off his back porch and almost got to our knees because the ground was shaking so hard,” Kane said.

Soon thereafter, he became the commander of a joint US military task force to assist Haiti.

“Our primary goal was really logistical support, opening up the airspace immediately after the earthquake which was critical,” he said.

Now grieve Ketan said, “Sorry with us but stand with us.”
