But in the meantime, I do feel for the people in the disaster area. I've been watching the news just about non-stop for the last few days, and it just leaves me horrified.
I've been following the story on the BBC website mainly and I'm horrified too. I've just been on the BBC website and discovered they're running a "Get in Touch" page which has some very sad stories of people looking for missing relatives. One woman discovered her birth mother in November last year and has spoken to her but not met her yet - and now she's missing. Another has a missing father who is 100% disabled, a veteran, and decribed as "ornery." And there are pages and pages of missing family members and friends - it's heartbreaking.
But there are good people out there - apparantly CraigsList has a lot of adverts from people all over the US offering free accommodation to refugees from Katrina.
