It's been a really bad week. Friends have lost everything, you really have no idea what to say to them. For now, hugs help, and just telling them they are safe is more important than anything else. My sister took in three families, they will stay there with her as long as needed. Her children are all grown so she has the room.
All schools in San Diego have been closed all week, some will open on Monday, but the students will have to stay inside.
At the shelters all the little kids are having a great time, they think they are out on a camping trip, with really no idea whats going on. It's the teens I'm worried about. You can tell they are scared, upset and confused. Our son worked 24 hours straight at the shelter last night, he came home this morning, to get some sleep, and said he's going back this afternoon. He said he needs to be there to help because it's helping him deal with all of this.
I thank you all for keeping us in your Thoughts and Prayers.  |
Ah Gina, I have tears in my eyes reading your post. Those poor, anxious people at the shelters. I am sure that for some of those teens you describe, it must all seem somewhat surreal for them. All these displaced souls, their lives were turned upside down in a matter of hours.
Bless you and your family for what you are doing. Please keep us posted. I wish someone on YT had more info on Payton, so that we could have the reassurance that she is okay. I can't stop worrying about her circumstances, and I don't even know her personally. Again, I am just so happy that YOU are okay, and that your home was unscathed.
I love San Diego; how tragic it is, what has happened in that beautiful city.
