We are PRAYING that Ike does not hit us !!! it is taking the almost same path that Rita took with the pressure holding it down .. then at the last moment they said GET OUT it is coming for you … we do not want it to hit some where else either … so our prayer is for it to disipate before it hits land!!!
If you will look on the FEMA web site and see that out of ALL the parishes in Louisiana Calcasieu sets ALONE in FEMAS declaration for individual help!!! Now if this Ike hits we do not have the funds to evacuate ALOT of people will be STAYING … SO I just pray that we are protected … and that NO ONE GETS HURT !!!
Many many people are saying I am NOT leaving because we simply DO NOT HAVE THE FUNDS …and some of the shelters people stayed in had NO RUNNING water some people slept on floors .. the tales that came back down here was HORRIBLE … people without their older kids on different busses and then the buses going to different shelters and NO one knowing where their children was until they came back!!
