My mother also lives in Venice. We are trying to talk her into going north. She is 75, has an awful back. She has a good friend a few years older and not doing well at all - she is on oxygen. But they have other friends who tell them not to be concerned. Both my brother and my husband have offered to fly down there tomorrow and drive them north somewhere. She has supplies and a tank of gas, but not much water and won't go to the store because it will "be a mess". I thought I had her convinced earlier today to just leave. My brother said she told him that they didn't want them going up into Georgia.
Where are your inlaws? My mother lives in the Plantations.
I will pray lupie.
Yikes, L. I wasn't even thinking about your mom down there. I hope you're able to talk her into moving out of the area. K's bro and family are in Tampa and he can't leave - works for CentCom.
