Carolyn, I'm glad you got your things moved and have a place to stay for you and your Dad. It's gonna be a long wait, I know, waiting and wondering what's going to be there when you get back. Try to remember that your community, family and friends are going through this together, try to gather strength from each other and your faith. There will be times when you'll be the strong one and times when you'll need the shoulder to cry on or the ear to vent to, we'll be there for whatever we can do to help you get through this. My advice is to make sure you have strong people around you when you go back the first time, don't go alone. I'm thankful my sister and her family was waiting for us when we drove up to our flooded home, I remember commenting that every time we leave our home we say a prayer for Jesus to cover our home with is blood and send his angels to protect it, but we didn't ask for it to be baptized!! Keep your humor, it'll get you through some unbelievable, heart wrenching times. Hugs to you.
