First-hand account of hurricane aftermath

Posted on September 2, 2005, under Current Events.

Fox News is hosting a blog, being posted to by Michele M. of Slidell. She is giving her daily accounts of what’s going on. She has two little children, and she doesn’t know when she will see her husband again.

This is the blog of one family that fled Hurricane Katrina, and their attempt to save their home. Michele M. of Slidell, Louisiana gives a firsthand account of her family’s ordeal. Michele evacuated to Orlando, Florida with her children; her husband stayed behind.

The conditions sound horrible. Not only is it a horrible natural disaster, but the worst sides of some people are starting to come out and take advantage of others. I’m not surprised people are capable of doing what some are doing, but I’m still very disappointed and ashamed of things that are going on during a time when American citizens should be pulling together - not attacking one another like animals.
