How awful for these people.
I feel ashamed sitting here in my safe dry stable house, eating a biscuit, sipping tea and tapping away on my pc. I can't begin to imagine how terrifying it must be to endure such a long time trying to hold onto your life, your love, breathe..and hope that you make it...but to what..total devastation.
Pharm..could you show us where they are on a map?
