That sounds just horrible. Where will they move people to now? I'm feeling guilty about being high and dry in Nevada. Prayers to all. :(
I know exactly how you feel. I'm feeling a little guilt myself. My father is from Franklin, LA and attended Loyola. He has always maintained an apartment in the Garden District and we visited New Orleans several times each year until he died in 1998. I've only been back once since then as it's been a bit painful to recall all the wonderful times we spent there. He left me the apartment and after watching all this devastation, pain, and personal loss, I don't have the heart to ask how my place is faring. It is so insignificant is the whole scheme of things.
Praying right along with you.
