Dealing with a loved one's precarious health is difficult anywhere, away from home worse, and in St. Martinville this year would have been awful!

I felt that my mother's health was just too precarious and basically refused to bring them down...thank goodness! If she had collapsed on the plane or down there in all of that hurricane aftermath, it would have been horribly challenging for us!Michele Bilyeuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15979296861999606692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13828728.post-59574795821493241932008-09-05T07:58:00.000-05:002008-09-05T07:58:00.000-05:00Candace- Florida has had plenty of experience with...<B>Candace</B>- Florida has had plenty of experience with this sort of thing. You are so right about the human spirit, and the way so many people throw themselves into repair and recovery. The U.S. has certainly had its share of natural disasters this year, and my thoughts are with all those threatened by Hannah and recovering from Fay.<BR/><BR/><B>Kay</B> - Hope your sister in Lake Charles is OK! New Orleans was pretty lucky this time, but I haven't heard much about Lake Charles. Hope your niece and her family have been spared this time.<BR/><BR/><B>suesueb</B> - So glad you are safe! My prayers are with you.<BR/><BR/><B>kimy</B> - Thanks for the good thoughts. All of our family and friends who were in harm's way seem to been blessed. They will have many hardships in the months to come, but right now, all are safe.<BR/><BR/><B>rian</B> - Thanks, rian! Our main worries have concerned friends and family, and we have been blessed in that regard.jenclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06046532245054911248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13828728.post-3640624262692467672008-09-04T00:56:00.000-05:002008-09-04T00:56:00.000-05:00Jenclair, I'm very glad to hear you're okay.

Focused on New Orleans and my sister in Lake Charles, I hadn't realized things were so bad in Baton Rouge, which of course escaped last time. And now my niece in Florida will suffer again, this time with a newborn baby in the house. I hope you find good news about Erin's house.Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05669924514599648160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13828728.post-34473003793628456752008-09-03T10:32:00.000-05:002008-09-03T10:32:00.000-05:00I'm very happy that you and your family are safe, ...I'm very happy that you and your family are safe, but what you describe is beyond comprehension. I live in Central Florida, and about an hour from us people are still flooded from Fay and very worried about what else could be ahead. I am very grateful to have been spared, and pray for those who are suffering. It says a lot for the human spirit that they are willing to jump back into the fray. Part I know is need, but it would be easy to just give in. It seems to be all over the country in one form or another, between fires and earthquakes and all the other natural disasters.
