8.8 Quake Rocks Chile

CherryFemme · 02-27-2010, 10:31 PM

I used wanted to thank this thread (& this site) for supporting us. We are so tired from staying up and being alert-- it was glorious to pop in here and see you all.

Turned out, we are very prepared and we have enough food to last us into the summer. The crank radio works, the folding stove is in order, and we have a first aid kit to beat all.

Again, thank you for your support,

CF + Bb

Cherry Femme, I am really glad to hear that you and Blackboot are okay! And the same to you and your family, Blaze! I didn't know your brother was in Chile, and I'm happy that he's safe, and I hope he's in, or finds, a safe place to be.

cherry & blackboot...glad u are ok,,need anything just holler loves.

chile..prayers prayers prayers and money money money
here is a great website that will give everyone quality up to the second information on everywhere

http://www.reliefweb.int/rw/dbc.nsf/doc100?OpenForm

very reliable as u will see.

God bless all, and may everyone be granted the strength, courage and dignity to rebuild in memory of those lost. They don't call earthquake victims heroes, nor the people who give aid,,but i believe in south america and haiti there are millions of unsung heroes and they are the residents who responded first to the sick, dying, injured, buried, and deceased....and those that have lost their lives simply by being there. May no one go unmentioned or forgotten, every life lost is a tragedy; every life saved simply luck.

Donations to Chile for direct assistance:
So far japan has pledged 3 million, no other country has pledged any $$ to date. i am quoting United Nations documentation found here http://ocha.unog.ch/fts/reports/dail...1003020216.pdf

Chile Earthquake May Have Shortened Days on Earth

Wow.

Glad everyone from the site is OK.

I have been to Chile several times and have friends I have not heard from in Santiago, Valparaiso and Vina del Mar.

I love Chile and my heart goes out to all those who continue to be without services, water and food.

I know many of the help teams are coming over the Andes from Argentina, which (except for Boots13

) is a pretty scary trip as I recall.

I hope the temblores are over and that things can begin to heal.

I have heard criticism of the government for not asking for US help initially...my thought is that they were probably afraid US missionaries would be trying to steal their children too.
