It was on CNN just a few hours ago. She and her grandson had been buried in a three story house, and the grandmother was trapped under a refrigerator. Both were coherent, and the news report showed the grandmother being wrapped in a quilt and then lifted up in a helicopter.

Wow...just wow...

I saw that! She reminded me of my own grandmother. Isn't that amazing how strong and determined and resilient they have been in this tragedy.

God bless her. I saw a pic of her on line and she didn't look a day over 60.
