grcthird said:Oh yeah, my girlfriend works at Chrildren's Hospital and she has been telling me about all the different things that she has seen. Kids were getting brought in from Ttown and nobody knew if their parents were alive or not, one kid got picked up by EMS who found him after being thrown out in a field by the storm. They were admitting traumas over 24 hours after the storms! Absolutly crazy stories, I think these have been the most heartbreaking part of this for me. :'(
I have another generator if he needs it also. I can take him water too and help. With anything else also.CHASMAN9 said:Yes, it is Chris Smith (CSmith) from Mt. Hope and I talk to him pretty much every day since then. I just spoke with him at lunch and it is a complete disaster up there with a number of deaths and total destruction. They say the tornado measured 1.8 miles wide and just took everything. He has no power, ( I brought him a generator) no water, etc. but is managing to make it so far. He is in pretty good spirits though. :****:

I have heard they found a body in the Coosa River in Gadsen from TTown. Terrible.
Juan_Hong_Loe said:They are supposed to be draining Forrest Lake to see what all is in it. From what I've been told, not gonna be good. I've heard stories of people being found on top of buildings, in trees, and body parts being found under rubble. I will be suprised if there isn't 300 people dead in Tuscaloosa. The death toll is higher than what the news report is because they are not confirming deaths until they identify the people.
