Cathmomof7,
You and your family are in our prayers. What a difficult cross for your family and neighbors. Then to see others nearby not affected at all and going about caring for untouched lawns, my heart goes out to you for what you have suffered and continue to suffer.
May Jesus and Mary continue to give you the strength during this recovery process. Thank you for sharing what you have learned, for we must all prepare for whatever God has in store for us in the days ahead.
