Super Typhoon Haiyan - Aftermath....

[Rosie1958]

My wife , with the help of one of her friends and Facebook, managed to get in contact with her mother in Tacloban on Monday. They had no water or food and there with my wifes brother and 3 very young children all fortunately survived. We have heard from them today that they have now joined other family members in Abuyog which we understand wasn't as badly hit. So far we have no news of my wifes sister in Dulag which we are told was completly washed away....she lived there with her husband and 2 young children. Still hoping for good news.
Hopefully moving all the family together to Abuyog will be a good move as the situation in Tacloban was apparently absolutely intolerable and looked like getting worse with the NPA taking advantage of the situation (so i am told).

Lordna, so glad to hear that some of your wife's family have been in touch. I hope and pray that news of your sister-in-law and her family arrives soon

Good news for lordna! That's a relief,
I hope the others awaiting to hear from loved ones are not waiting much longer,
This event has moved me very much in the way I never felt before, and the brighter side is that it shows how much we love the Filipino people,
I hope you guys hear something soon
