I finally just saw an aerial view of my parents house in Pass Christian, via the www.wwltv.com website. It is gone. But its okay all of our neighbors houses are gone and they are going to get everyone together to build somewhere near but way further back from the coast or in Hattiesburg, MS. Anyway, crazy times. But we are making it here in Oxford, MS.

Also, I'm from New Orleans, born and raised, but it seems to me that the people in New Orleans are so much more in desperation than the people on the MS Gulf Coast. It scares me so much for the city of New Orleans. My godmother's brother has left his house uptown because the looters were trying to get into his house. He has gone to be with his children in Houston. His wife is stuck, she is a doctor, at Oschner Hospital. She says it is like WWIII there. She doesn't know if she should leave because of the sick people there and she is a cancer doctor. Also, some friends of my parents from NOLA are moving to Nashville. They are leaving their house and not going back. They are scared of what will become of the city and how long it will take to rebuild it. I know that might seem like a bad attitude but it looks like it will never be the same and for some New Orleanians moving is the only option.
