I feel for all of you. I was in Oklahoma in May of 1984 and lost everything in 8 feet of water. It was a terrible thing but my daughter and I and our lovely dog all lived so we went on but many didn't. I will put you in my prayers.

What a sad situation but if anyone can survive it's an Aussie. Good luck, I know you will bounce back.

If anyone is interested in pictures of the flooding in Australia - the area affected is the size of Germany and France combined. After years of drought, the irony of it all... just about as devastating as the cyclones can be.

What terrible devastation.
