I hope everything is going well with your mom. Tell her that the "yanks" are praying for her!
I have heard this about the red cross as well. I had a neighbor years ago who gave birth to her son during the Vietnam war, she asked the red cross to notify her husband that their son had been born. The red cross refused to relay such a "trivial" message. The husband was killed a few days later! He never knew that his son was born.
My father use to say the red cross was only good for stale donuts and bad coffee in WWII.
Also, the red cross keeps a VERY HIGH percentage of dontations for "administrative costs" translation paying their salaries.
