Every bit helps! I am in Yancey County, too. Our home was spared. But, so many homes, vehicles, business and LIVES were lost. It will be a long time until things are "normal". Thank you for making this video. I watched it with tears streaming down my face. It really captures the reality of Helene and her destruction. But, more importantly, it captures the reality of the lives she affected.
@@BetsySoler-s8i You are a beautiful human! What a blessing you are! God will lead whoever needs to read your comment and accept your generosity. God bless you. 🙏 🫶
Boone, Valle Crucis, Foscoe, Seven Devils, Banner Elk, Linville, Spruce Pine, Burnsville, Swannanoa - my life in a list of towns that most don’t know. On the 27th of September, the water showed no mercy. Every time I think I’ve cried my last tears and I’m ready to “move on,” I’m reminded that grieving is a journey. Thanks for posting.
I had only heard of Boone before the flood, but after spending two weeks down there helping clean up I’ve either been to or heard of all those places 😢
God bless you all. We still see you from Ohio and are doing what we can to support the region. My family comes from the hills and I feel this whole thing deeply.
I have to piggyback on you comment because there's no comment box after just a few comments. Yt censorship. God bless you all in NC and TENN. My heart is broken and I'm pissed that our government is not doing anything. Thank you volunteers. From Michigan with daily prayers and love.
I felt the depth of y'all's sorrow in every word. We have always believed our mountains protect us from terrible weather. The derecho of 2012 proved us wrong. Please keep sharing your experiences with this super devastating storm. People outside of the affected areas need to know what happened. Everyone affected needs to know we haven't forgotten and won't forget what happened with this unprecedented catastrophe. I hope one day the survivors's stories are compiled into a book or a series of books with photos of the destruction that happened and have all proceeds go into all the communties to help the people in their recovery. Praying for everyone affected by the evil hurricane Helene. 🙏 Love Melissa in the mountains of Virginia. ❤ Mountain Strong. 🫶
Spent two summers in rental homes in Yancey County to escape Miami's heat. So sad....such beautiful country and fine people. Keep on truckin'....oops...flying!
It’d be nice if it was not political, but. Sorry not sorry. the democrats don’t give a damn about these people if we’re simply basing it on their In-actions. They’re letting these folks fend for themselves. Losing their homes, their jobs, confiscating their land for pennies on the dollar, and now separating families. That’s ALL political. They NEED to feel the guilt over this one
Rand Paul the Republican Senator from Kentucky blocked aid for Hurricane Helene 2 days ago. Search Rand Paul blocked aid Hurricane Helene to learn more. I am sorry for the suffering and my heart is heavy but please try to find out why Senator Rand Paul is blocking federal funding.
So sad! I saw that. Everyone complaining the government is not helping. I wish people would have researched. Look up Trump and Biden history and you will see the mess Biden had to dig us out of. Gas is high because we are now oil dependent and don’t buy it from Russia anymore. We are drilling here more than ever.. I guess it’s the loudest, one that won? All these tariffs will put this country in a depression. Things are about to get way worse unfortunately.
If he is blocking it, it’s probably because the bill is not actually for aide for the people of NC but for gov contractors, or NGO’s who will misappropriate the funds and never set foot in these communities. Google FEMA Fraud, the name of an any hurricane of the past 2 decades. Natural disasters are a boon for the professional criminals in Washington.
You need to listen to him speak. He was blocking aid to UKRAINE which was pork barreled into the disaster relief. More money went to Ukraine than NC. That is why he blocked it. He wants ALL the money to go to NC. So, while some will say he blocked relief, what he really blocked was more money to ukraine. The government is a tangled web of corrupt politicians....we are slowly weeding them out. From Rand Paul's history, I have a hard time believing he is not fighting for the best interest of the people. Anyone can change, so I listened and researched your claim and I do not see evidence supporting what you say. The details are important. *Link added for reference to what he actually said. ruclips.net/video/vAEDzC0QhCA/видео.htmlsi=4-vsQOxyUEHuwTQv
I don't know why people are worried. It's going to be Trump to the rescue. He said he's going to personally rebuild North Carolina with new jobs new homes everyone will be rich just like him 👌🏿
He ‘supposedly’ directed car manufacturers to switch to making ventilators. I’ve never heard him once say how he was planning to switch manufacturing to help these folks. Who’s manufacturing is going to be redirected to make heaters, build housing, provide potable water? He has given details on his big plans for very everything else he plans to do but just a generalized, blanket statement on helping these people. I’m not only talking about long term recovery, I’m talking about just merely being able to survive from one day to the next.
Thank you for sharing your story. I'm off the Cane River in Burnsville and grateful to be alive!
Thank you for all your help. Salt of the earth men. 👏

Please, no politics. I am a Dem, but human to human is what we can do to help in the ways we have to help.

When did he say that? Where can I find this footage of Trump?
