In Baton Rouge we are getting slammed with people. Last night while looking for her Mom at the emergency shelter, my wife met an elderly couple from Lakeview who had been rescued from their rooftop yesterday morning. All day long they had been thankful to be sitting on metal chairs in front of the shelter. We put them up for the night since last night I scored a generator from a terrific friend whose power came back up yesterday. Today we brought them to the Baton Rouge Airport so they could fly to Houston.
We are in desperate need of Doctors, Nurses, supplies and blood. Please take some time today to give blood, there were a tremendous number of injuries and much of the blood supply in NO may have been spoiled.
As of today we have heard that nearly 460 busses will be taking all of the people out of the Superdome and bringing them to the Houston Astrodome. I have made arrangements to have some friends look for my Mother in Law in Houston. They should be arriving by 8:00AM.
