The chapters range, yet build from “Why to prepare” to more specific details of “Where to go” in a disaster.

GREAT interview guys!
It makes me want to share this story:
It is not something that I talk about often.I grew up in a small town in the Chicago burbs called Plainfield. In 1990 a tornado destroyed most of the town. Leveled the high school, one middle school and did damage to the grade school I went to(I was 10). This happened August 28th, the day before school started. There were about 28 people killed in the tornado. Most of the deaths occurred in the high school. Thank God that it did not happen 1 day later. The entire district would have been just getting out of school when the tornado hit.
The town was in no way ready for this to happen. The sirens went off 6 minutes after the high school was hit. The storm really did come out of nowhere, even for a midwest storm. To really put in perspective, there were 3 streets that never rebuilt, due to damage. I was visiting a family friend a few miles away. I was the first person to see our house after the tornado. 2 of our 3 dogs were gone. We got them back a few weeks later.
I remember running down the street and having to climb over a fallen tree to get to the house. Our house was about 25% destroyed. The roof was gone, every window broken. The front corner was collapsed into the house. A lot of damage was debris and water. We seriously had nothing but what we had with us. I kid you not, there was NOTHING we salvaged.
To this day, there are only a few pictures of me under the age of 10. We lived close enough to family that we had a place to stay. We also got clothes and other stuff from the Salvation Army. If it was not for the S.A. we would have had nothing! It took a long time for me to really appreciate how lucky we were to have that.
Looking back it is really weird for me. I can remember things so vividly it is scary. Then there are parts that are almost blacked out. That is probably for the best. I am thankful that we made it out fine. To this day, I am sad for the people that lost loved ones. What we lost was pretty much meaningless compared to the lives that were lost that day.
I hope that this episode can help parents at least THINK about this stuff. It can and does happen. We don’t have kids so it is not something I think about often. But I hope you parents do.
And when something like this happens near you, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE donate something. Time, food old clothes, anything. It got us through a really hard time..Cheers
(sorry for the long post, this show really hit me hard)
