I just got word that my moms car is 100% underwater and her apt had water up to people's chest so her apt is gone. Everything I had stored there left of my dad is completely gone. I'm just numb. My moms on a fixed income and idk what she's going to do.
My BIL mom lost her home and the FEMA trailer she had from when IKE hit back in 2008. She has to swim out in water that was up to get neck...Idk what she's going to do.

And I'm sorry that you've lost all that was left of your dad's possessions. (((Hugs))) Any chance you could move your mom to live with you?

I can't imagine the horror of being there and seeing the water rise around you. And so many many people who's lives have been turned upside down.

Thank you all.
One thing each and every one of you can do, even if you don't believe in it, is to pray for all of those who are in high water in the dark tonight.
There are entire communities that no rescue has even been attempted yet.
I really don't care if you believe in God or not, I ask you to pray anyway.

Praying for all of you. Please let us know how we can help. I can send money to the Red Cross or Animal shelters but I would FAR rather donate to a pea who would get 100% and could use the money.

That's a kind and generous thought. I'm still trying to find out about immediate family members, so all I can think of that may help tonight is to ask people to pray. Thank you again.

It's one thing to see it on TV (heart breaking) but hearing y'alls personal stories makes it even more heart-wrenching. Hugs and prayers continue for you, leftturnonly , and everyone else effected!

Leftturnonly...really hoping you have some news about your family. leftturnonly I have! It is with great joy and thanksgiving that I can report that ALL are well and safe! I do have friends who needed to be air-lifted out or rescued by volunteers. Homes with water to the roof and all vehicles underwater. And I am so glad to read every one of their posts, because that means that they.got.out. I'm seeing local photos and I have to say, never did I ever consider using a kayak to get to church. It appears to be a fine option today, though.

Pretty much everything I had is gone. I have my vehicles and computer. Don't have my photos and important documents. I know it's super early in the process but I want to share what a friend who lost her house in the Fort McMurray fires did. She set up a Dropbox account and asked her friends and family to upload any pictures they had of her and her kids etc. (Set up folders by year) She was overwhelmed by the response, and while she doesn't have every picture, she's been able to put together albums. Don't forget about all the pictures you've shared on Facebook, etc too I hope this idea helps some of you gain some of those precious pieces of your histories back.
