I evacuated to baton rouge Louisiana before Katrina hit. I tried getting in contact with my family and friends before I left, but no one was anywhere to be found . Assuming that nothing major was going to happen, I just left notes saying where I was gonna be. I remember turning the television on at my brothers house to see what was going on in New Orleans, and that's when I heard the five most terrifying words of my life "New Orleans is under water" I couldn't believe what I was seeing and hearing. It was that moment that I broke into tears; not because my home was under water, but because I didn't know where my family and friends were, and if they had made it out of the city. Cell phones were not working, and there was absolutely no way to reach anyone. I kept trying to calm myself down telling myself that everyone was ok. I went to church praying that I would hear from my family everyday. I had never gone to church so much in my life. To make along story short.. some strange homeless women walks up to me and says that my family was ok and eveyone was on their way to the house where I was staying. To my surprise, My entire family, both moms side and dads were in my brothers house waiting for my sister and I to return home. I found out that they all evacuated a day before I did. Thats my greatest moment. My family and I wasn't always close. Never again will I take anything or anyone for granted.
