Lydia-

Yes, sorry, meant to say that DH has not been called to help but his city & many of the surrounding cities are there helping as well. Thanks for asking.

I have been watching this for hours just stunned. And then I remembered there are Sunshiners living in that area! I am so glad Jen that you are good. I keep crying thinking of these people and children.

So glad you are okay.

How awful, still watching this on the news. Jen glad all is good for you..

I understand your worry. My husband and daughter were 30 min. behind the bridge collapse between OK and Ark from a camping trip and I could not get a hold of them for hours so at that time I had no idea where they were but knew that had to cross that bridge and of course the fear and worry had me going crazy. Dont know what else to say except everyone pray and hug your loved ones.

It's just so scary & sad. I just hope when I get to work tomorrow everyone is safe. I never liked bridges much, but postly think of my fear when stopped underneath one....now it will be a long time before I forget going over too! Those poor people! How frightened they must have been!

Disneynut-when did that bridge collapse? Just so scary!! I'm glad your family was safe but how scary for you!

Jen.......so gald you are okay and your co-workers are ok as well.

It had to have been a little over 5 years ago. I used to live in Oklahoma before I moved to Louisiana. I was pregnant with my youngest so I didnt feel like camping and she just turned 5. I also have a fear of bridges well I guess all heights. I always close my eyes and clench my fist and grit my teeth whenever we go over one. I dont care how pretty it looks, I dont want to look. My heart goes out to all affected. My prayers will be with all. Hope all goes well for you too Jen.
