Thank you for continuing the story. So much goes on after an "event" but it doesn't make the headlines. This is really the hard part, the aftermath that people don't get unless they have been through it.

It's all so sad. By the way, I have a great nephew who was flooded out in a Berlin trailer park desperate to rent a house (or apartment) for his family of 3.If you know of anything I'd love it if you- or any of your readers would let me know!

THAT IS SO HARD. there was a housing shortage before and now it is much much worse. I am sorry about you nephew. Was it the park along Rt 12?
