Thank you for those who rescued others 🙏 ❤️😇🙏☝️❤️🔥🤛🤜👏👍🤝💪
Our sympathies from Hawke’s Bay New Zealand where many families went through the same terror last year in Cyclone Gabrielle. And now Dunedin in the South Island has had severe flooding too. I’m glad these people were rescued. ❤️ ❤❤
Thank God the family is alive and well; for proactive who get involved saving and contributing helping others. .
Glad your beautiful family is okay. Many prayers going up for y’all
THANK YOU @WCNC for bringing us this interview. I have been searching fir it after seeing a quick RUclips shorts edit. Im so happy to see One good story for today. Especially to come out of this area. Just so Happy!
Sending love and understanding from New Orleans. Stay strong yall😢❤
Your life as is now is perfect. God has His hand upon your Family. Prayers continually for all who are devastated.
Thank God for the people that got in their boats, kayaks and paddle boards to rescue their neighbors. I am so sorry for everyone affected by this. I just cannot imagine how horrifying it would be to be stuck on a roof with water almost to the top.
@@Ash-kb9hn Amen!
In an attic would be even worse. Sad whoever perished that way
To everyone spared, thank God and may He keep blessing you.
i’m so glad I didn’t listen to the dispatcher who told him to go into the attic! Because you can tell from the picture that anyone in the attic of those houses would’ve drowned.
Saved by neighbors! Thank goodness people are helping each other because it doesn’t seem like the military or FEMA are doing much
@@toriwiley3372 FEMA and the military are trying to cover a huge area…5 states….from the Florida keys to North Carolina and Tennessee. They’re spread thin. Yes. Neighbors helping neighbors even if you’ve never met the neighbors before..,that’s very important.
@@sallyprzybil2404 They came too late.
As a mother with a toddler seeing all of this, I feel such big feels for this family and every other family who experienced something similar. I have a friend who had to walk out in water with a baby. It all sounds so mortifying. I feel so blessed to have only had mild property damage from wind and trees, but I also can't help but feel some guilt every time I count those blessings. 😢 Never thought I'd see such a thing in my little home town.
We love you all ❤ thank you for sharing your story so other people realize how devastating it is. I pray that you find peace with what happened. And that you and your family stay safe forever now. God loves you. Amen 💕
We do have to make peace with things. One love ❤️
This is so scary, horrifying. I can’t imagine being with my child and husband and almost drowning in rising water around our house..
I cannot imagine! I’m so glad they made it out! I saw a story of another family stranded on their roof, but it collapsed and they drowned before they could be rescued. So incredibly sad.
The attic is the last place you want to go! So many people died in Katrina stuck in their attics
It worked for them!
@@cameronwalker6825 No, they didn't go to their attic.
Thank the good Lord, they are ok!
Yes yes yes God will make a way for this family yo rebuild! Tbey will all find Careers in being Super heros! There is no way you survive this and not persue a life much bigger than yours.
I will never go in attic to escape anthing.
The attic (upstairs) is a total white teen girl move in every horror film. That or running down the exact middle of the road.
Then in this situation you & your children would have drowned.
I’m in Florida! Is there a place we can take clothes, hygiene care, canned foods, pet food?? That will be delivered to the people in need??
I would contact charities like Samaritan's Purse and churches.
We had this tragedy in Brazil too. It's a nigthmare. It's terrible.
This is greatness that our government is not there are armies not their deploying water food this that gas whatever they need to survive
You are a shameful, Hellbound liar
Its still crazy seeing my sons picture all over media looking through the vines from our backyard. Prayers for everyone going through this. God Bless our community.
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
To those in charge of this devastation; FIND the missing!!!???? That's the focus with the most priority! Do it!!!!?
Cute kid, he is like the male version of Heather O'rourke. If he had said "Theiiir heeere!" I would have freaked out and thrown away my laptop, lol. But seriously, Thank God they are all OK!
Wow attics can be dangerous. Make sure you have a way to get out quickly if needed or an axe
Why didn’t they evacuate beforehand, or go to a shelter??
🙏🥺
❤
Glad they are ok. Just a question..with those who lost their homes what happens about their mortgage? Do they still have to pay the mortgage if the house is gone? Does the mortgage company take the insurance money to pay off the mortgage instead of letting the people rebuild with that money? The reason I ask is after my home was badly damaged by hurricane Charley years ago, the builder never finished the job of fixing the house and the mortgage company simply kept about $15,000 of the insurance money. The did not apply that money to my principal, nothing, I did not get any back to replace my destroyed furniture as some of that money was intended for, no the mortgage company simply kept the money!
My house was destroyed by fire. Homeowners insurance is usually 2 policies, one for the dwelling and one for personal property. 2 different claims must be submitted. I chose to handle the dwelling repairs myself, so the insurance company paid off my mortgage and gave me the remaining balance. I had to make a separate claim for my personal property losses. It was a tedious task to inventory every single item I lost. I had 2 years to submit the claim, and then they cut me a check.
@@twatts1523 They said the law was they had to put the mortgage company’s name on all checks they sent. Yes I filed a second claim…I sent them a 409 page document with pictures and I even went through the JC Penny Catologe and sent excerpts from that on comparable items…a lot of my stuff was near new. Everyone in the area had damage and needed builders to build so it was hard to get a builder. Some people hired builders who then subcontracted to someone else who showed up for a couple days then disappeared with their money. It was not just me, lots of people got ripped off by contractors. I’m a widow, living alone, construction work is beyond my skill set.
Watch these insurance companies really closely ! They will take your payments with a smile for years and then try everything they can to weasel their way out of a claim if something happens !!!
@@johnnyfire3860
You ain’t lyin.
That in itself should be illegal.
If you pay for insurance and somethin that wasn’t your fault happens to whatever you had insured;
IT SHOULD BE COVERED BY THEM.
Bankruptcy or government help . Either way they need to leave that area .
Dear god!!!
So glad they are safe but going into the attic doesn’t make sense. Getting on the rood probably saved them.
Hello there, I was wondering, if I can share with you the most important thing ever in life. God the Father sent His holy Son Jesus to earth, to be born of a virgin. He grew up and died on the cross for our sins. Then He was put into a tomb for 3 days, after that Abba Father raised Jesus to life.He appeared to people, and went back to heaven. We all must sincerely receive Jesus into our life to be God's child. See John 1:12 for this please. Will you today genuinely by faith receive Jesus into your life for salvation?
Nope. Wake up.
Billions for migrants, Ukraine and Israel. Leftovers and depleted funds for Americans.
You are a shameless Godless Hellbound liar. Stop it before you meet up with t h e Lord.
Smh.😢
😢😢
✝✝
Aww cute little kids ..Glad they made it ok
Hey, federal gov't, put helping the newcomers to our country on pause and help the American people in their time of need... NOW !!!!
They are.
You are a Hellbound liar
You mean the criminal illegal aliens who have broken in to our home (country) and being offered 10x the subsidies as Americans!
@@BicoastalJet Too little, too late. Found the Donk Bootlicker.
@@catherinelw9365too little too late? What are you expecting to occur for such a large disaster
Why was there no cell service anyone
Towers probably ripped down or damaged .
Please remove this comment. It shows how ignorant people can be..
Look up the video of a telephone pole washing away while taking everything that stood in front of it out. That’s why there was no cell service. It was crazy. It literally shredded through a building with ease.
@@gregblankenship7584 The cell towers were destroyed!
Because cell towers were destroyed and the electrical grid was down, magat.
This is Kamalas Katrina. These folks need help
Kamala is not the President. Joe Biden is.
You are a terrible, Hellbound idiot
In case some of you people forgot, this is AMERICA. We don't need help or support from any other countries WE ARE THE HELP. We aren't some 3rd world country that needs to beg for money. We don't need anyone to help clean up our disasters. WE (AMERICANS) pull together and do it ourselves because we aren't weak. WE are more than capable of standing on our own 2 feet and brushing ourselves off. Some of you may feel like we're entitled to getting help since we do it for everyone else BUT that is what being A LEADER IS. Someone has to lead the free world and keep justice/ democracy alive. [metaphor] You wouldn't ask a homeless person for money (especially if they are being invaded unjustly, shot at on a daily basis, rapidly losing their infrastructure and going through a genocide) hell no... you are a grown adult who has grown adult money and the help of fellow neighbors, friends, and family to help support you. Remember that whenever you feel like you need a handout. And especially remember that whenever you sleep under this flag🇺🇲 We have responsibilities and that not just a couple hrs of the day, that's 24/7 365 days a year. Humble yourself and realize that people KILL to be a U.S citizen. It's the greatest privilege of our world.
@@BadOmens17 yes. Basically I agree…but we need to help each other too…that’s part of being an American…we reach out to and help our neighbors…even if we don’t know our neighbors name…that’s what makes us strong….being there for each other….and now these hurricane affected people need whatever help we the people can give them….
Iam with you brother love your words just wanted to reach out and tell you thank you you said everything what I feel god bless Americans sticking Together god Bless America 🇺🇸
It is gonna happen again and again even worst.
Jesus Christ is Lord
They, need blame who ever open the lake on rain day, is no way the only rain from the sky the river got full of whater?
The feds had to drag out the rescues for the media...that's why it took them 4-5 days
Money for foreign wars and illegals, but not for taxpayers. Kamala is ponying up $750 for victims that is worth $100 with Joe’s inflation.
You are an idiot
Well going to another part of the same house that's flooding.... Isn't a Good idea!
Kayak. In attic
Я сочувствую вам. Но это сам Бог наказал США за поддержку террористического государства - Украина.
Если ваши политики и ваш народ не одумается, ещё более страшные события
произойдут...
It's only a bit of rain. What's all the fuss. It happens
The price of living in the rural areas.
What a stupid comment. You didn't see Ashville? Low IQ...
God Jesuchrist help that family
