Dannie Hawley (aka Darlene, Dar) was born in Montana in 1949 to a Montana boy and his Australian war bride. She graduated from Laurel senior high school in 1967 and went on to earn a BA from U of M, a BSN from Montana State University, an MSN from the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, as well as a Diploma in Christian studies through a graduate level program at Regent College (which was, at that time, located on the campus of the University of British Columbia) in Canada. Dannie has had quite a variety of employment opportunities including telephone operator for an answering service, hospital administrator, medical transcriber, clinical specialist in Pediatric Nursing, Pediatric Nurse Practitioner, Trainer and manager of an ambulance service on a North American Indian reservation, and many others before becoming a career Medical Missionary with service as co-director of a medical clinic in a West African jungle village. Dannie is currently Project Director for the Samaritan House Children's Center in an underdeveloped city of 250,000 people in West Africa. Dannie has produced a newsletter since 1984 to detail stories from things happening wherever she served in the world including a brief time in the jungles of Central America, "journalist" in Israel and caring for children during the mid-eighties famine in Ethiopia. Her mailing list of readers stretches to 24 countries of the world. Dannie's writings always include colorful, and sometimes gripping, accounts of her experiences some of which have been included in the book just published, DEALING WITH OUR FEARS WHEN LETTING GO SEEMS IMPOSSIBLE. Dannie and her missionary colleague produced two booklets concerning Middle East issues in the late eighties: "Isaac and Ishmael today" and "Lebanon: a mother's nightmare". Additional publications include a booklet for children hospitalized for surgery that was produced by the university press during graduate school years entitled "Stevie Goes to the Hospital". An article she wrote for PEDIATRIC NURSING (1984) detailed results of research Dannie had done at UVa in 1983, "Post-Operative Pain Management in Children". Dannie has been totally blind since 1994. Nevertheless, she continues to serve at her post in Africa.
