| Hello From Japan All is well where we are, we were without power for a couple of days , and after getting power we all realized what happened just outside the gates of our base. I live in northern Japan and just 2 hours south of here was where the quake hit and tsunami was the worst. Our neighboring cities were hit pretty bad. Thankfully the base sits just far enough from the water that we didnt substain any damage except minor damage from the quake. Bella and Blossom have been scared..Im surprised Bella hasnt shakened herself to death, and Blossom loves to sit on my shoulder these days. We have had many many aftershocks. We spent 2 nights in the dark and cold. We have power but its very limited right now. My husband is currently deployed to the middle east. The kids,dogs and I are ok. A bit shakin up, but now focused on helping our Japanese host. I will post address' to anyone that would like to help with sending supplies to help the people of Japan as well as animals that have been displaced. I have attached a touching video of a dog and his/her friend...PLease continue to Keep Japan in prayers...God Bless |

| I'm very glad you are safe, however, I am sure you are shaken up. Your little yorkies are understandably scared. That video was on the evening news. It was very touching. Did you know those two were saved and taken to a vet's office for care? I'm sure your husband was very worried about you.

| I are glad to hear you and your family are ok. I must be so unsettling with all the aftershocks. I remember how I reacted after the Northridge quake here. Sending prayers and donations to the people of Japan. Bless them and shelter them from further tragedy. Best Wishes to you for your continued safety and recovery.
