A very heartwarming update

Totally on their own and without fanfare, off duty nurses and staff drove to OKC this past weekend, not on a medical mission but with their grubbies on armed only with shovels, brooms, hatchets, and chainsaws to help their neighbors in need.

They said that license plates from every State and Canadian Province were represented. There was no shortage of food, they were interrupted every few minutes with another group distributing hot food out of their RVs and Pickups.

An OKC friend lost her entire home, horses and livestock. Food crops have been devastated and livestock destroyed. Many folks are still missing and presumed dead but authorities are turning away the throngs of volunteers who, themselves, become a logistics liability.

I want to take this opportunity to say a sincere "Thank you!" (or Canadian equivalent) to all those who came to our rescue. We are ALL neighbors in this shrunken internet world.
