Miracles do happen

It had been almost 48 hours since we heard from my aunt in Mississippi. My mother was pretty calm, until they pinpointed the town of Bay.St.Louis as the worst hit. Later they said that they were just leaving the bodies in the houses and marking them with black marks because they didn't have enough refridgerated trucks to move them. At this point I had given up all hope. I couldn't imagine that she could survive, along with my uncle and cousin, the news images were just too horrific.

We just received a call 20 minutes ago. They're all ok. Their home is gone, but they are all fine. We don't know where they are because they had to go...

Thank you everyone for your thoughts and prayers, and don't stop now, plenty more people are in need of them.

Such a scary thing. And yes, we do have to keep up the prayers. There are months of hard times ahead for the region, and bound to be lots of sad news. Heidi
