My friend's mother has been found.. His grandfather not..
Edited on Mon Sep-12-05 05:11 PM by SoCalDem
He was swept away when she could no longer hold onto him..:(
He is sadly, probably one of the "unidentified" on the streets of N.O.

The family managed to locate Mom in a shelter and she's now safely in California..WHERE SHE COULD HAVE BEEN FROM DAY ONE...IF SHE HAD BEEN ABLE TO JUST USE A FREAKING PHONE!!!!

IT WAS kATRINA + 4 DAYS UNTIL SHE WAS ABLE TO CALL, AND BY THEN THEY HAD SENT HER TO HOUSTON..

6. Read up on the cycle of grieving so you can be there for him as
he takes that journey - if he has to. Peace.
