Prayers are being sent to all of you in the wake of this terrible hurricane Gustav.. I just cannot believe this is happening again after so many have in your area are not even yet finished rebuilding their lives from Katrina and the havoc she wreaked on all of you in her wake. I saw some people from Louisiana areas being interviewed on TV last nite on CNN news about being evacuated and asking a lot of other questions. Due to the way CNN set things up, people could call or email directly to the station to help with the evacuation and to check on all areas that would most likely be hit. One man being interviewed refused to leave his home.. From guilt...GUILT? It seems that he and his wife went thru Katrina by having to stay up in their attic.. His prescious wife of 18 years, dropped dead in his arms for no apparent reason soon after they reached the attic as the water levels were getting higher and higher. He stayed that way with her dead in his arms for a day and a half until they were rescued... The autopsy on his wife determined that she died from stress. All I could do was sit there and cry while watching him wipe his tears away.. I hope the poor man makes it although I really kind of think that he would rather not beings that he chooses to stay.. May God be with all of my friends in ANIMALS of all sorts during this awful crisis....And of course everyone else in the path of Gustav. I cannot do much from where I am. I live in California.
