That's a good story. Thanks.

My brother, a nurse, was there for almost two months. He was one of the people that went there the first week, going in and out with cops and firemen from all over the country. First he was in a group put together by Mobile Oil, then just ad hoc. He stayed usually with my sister in Baton Rouge, come home at night and then go back in the morning. He's a big tough guy with a nurse practitioner's license, the cops loved him.

I wish he'd write some of the things he saw.

Everybody else I know from there wound up leaving, evacuating, looking out for Number One and their own families.

He's the only one I know who spent all day every day there, helping others, no pay, nothing but the gratitude of the people he helped.

I sent him money but he gave it away.
