Thursday Recovery

Hi to all you kind souls who care about Joplin and our Celiac/Gluten Intolerant community....displaced as we may be.
We just helped another Mom but this time she is the only one in her family that has Celiac disease. She has a husband and four children.They were right in the middle of the tornado and lost their home and two cars and all their possessions. They had a small cellar and all of them were in it as the powerful tornado destroyed everything around them. The folks in this situation have so many decisions to make. And unfortunately they must be made quickly. Temporary housing is difficult to come by right now. Did I mention that we have had 6700 houses destroyed! Kari and her husband don't want to make a too hasty decision.....Well anyway because of you generosity we are able to help her eat while she and her family stay with friends. Goodnight friends....Rita

  2. It is a time for us all to do something Johnna. If kind folks like you do as much as you did, I can surely do whatever I am able to help this community. Unfortunately I am limited. I am just amazed at how generous people are when they see people hurting.
