I just wish there was something I could do to help. But it seems the only help they want is money (I've already donated what little I could). If I were to drive out to one of the evacuation centers it would probably cost more than I could afford in gas anyway. I just feel so bad for the kids, elderly, and ill.

It is so sad. I feel bad for the babies and the nice people.
The violent ones are making it hard to help. My friends and I are doing all that we can around here. We wanted to go to Baton Rouge, but were told not to go there. They said that they dont want people to go because we would just get in the way. (Baton Rouge doubled in population) Besides, I was also told that some of the people are holding people up and taking their vehicles.
I was just notified that a bus carrying people away just flipped off of Hwy 49 in St Landry Parish.If you believe in prayer. Just pray.
