| I was watching the news and all those houses just flattened!!! So awful! My heart goes out to all those people! One story was showing a family in a shelter and the neighbor knew they were there, it was under their totally destroyed, leveled house. So they were dug out by rescue crews and the whole family, including the dog came out with not a mark on them!! They were in shock of course but so happy too!

Donating YT 500 Club Member | It is devastating. One of our YT members had family members (nephew's family, I believe) that died in the storms last night, God be with them. I'm in the far NE area of the State and we had storms but no tornadoes, thank God.

| That is terrible, I feel so bad for people that are victims of natural disasters, I can't imagine what it is like to go through anything like that.

The Tulsa area didn't have any tornadoes either, thank God. It seems the worst hit West/South/North of us.

| Tornado devastation! My sisters (symysmom) great nephew, Jason, 9 yrs. old, was critically injured. He has worsened overnight. They put in a shunt last night to try and relieve some of the swelling to his brain. He has collapsed lungs, several skull fractures, broken hip and femur, and toes that will have to be pinned. They have him in a medically induced coma. They have taken him in for surgery this morning to help relieve some of the pressure to his chest and brain. His younger siblings are nearly as bad. The 1 1/2 yr. old sister is in a body cast. And the 3 yr. old is probably going to have to have the same surgery to help relieve some of the pressure. These kids Mother was killed in the tornado. The 2 younger kids daddy was on his way home from work and he is with them at the hospital. Jason's daddy, my sisters nephew, is by his side. I am heading to the hospital this morning to take snacks and drinks for them so maybe I can update later this afternoon. |

| I am so terribly sorry. I will be praying for everyone. Thank you for letting us know. I saw something on FaceBook but didn't know what had actually happened. Please keep us updated and let them know that we have them in our prayers.
