Guest guest Posted June 9, 2001 Report Share Posted June 9, 2001 Not sure our misery has hit your airwaves, but Houston has been declared a flood disaster area this morning. Me & mine are all safe & sound, but there are thousands who are in really bad shape.. 21 THOUSAND folk without power.. all the hospitals in the TX Medical Center are closed except for Texas Children's & MD (the cancer hospital). I called my own unit to check on them.. our personnel have not been relieved in 24 hours, they're on emergency power, both sub-basements in the hospital are flooded (meaning no elevators, no central supplies, no meals for the patients from the main kitchen..). We had a code on the unit earlier today, & those good folk have had to keep the patient stable while they waited for an ambulance crew to get up the stairs with transport. Things are really grim.. Prayers (swung chickens, candles..)are much appreciated. Hugs to all- Liane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
