Worries about New Orleans

I am afraid for my Unlce John. I want him to be safe. I want for his life to be normal. I want to see him. Normal isn't likely. Seeing him is likely either. This is a scary situation. You don't know what to believe on the news. Some say "mob rule" others say not the case. I know that the National Guard is there now. But they say on the news that there is no National Guard presence on the news. I am uneasy about the Big Easy. What kinds of situations and people will he encounter? No, I haven't seen him for five years, but it certainly doesn't diminish how much I love him. I asked my Pastor to please use her in with the Big Man and pray for him. Please be safe Uncle John, I love you. I almost wish now that the hurricane itself was still here. I knew that it would be ugly afterward, but I could never have imagined all of what is happening in real life.

I am also moved by the plight of the victims of the hurricane, those who have lost everything and loved ones and who have had additional suffering and strain by waiting, waiting, waiting...
