Good news can come from devastation, as one senior resident of Moore, Okla., found out after she lost her home and presumably her dog after the May 20th tornado. Click here to read more.
The good news came as a TV reporter interviewed an elderly woman who lost her home to the May 20th Oklahoma tornado.
Behind Barbara Garcia lay the devastation that was once her house. She told the CBS reporter that she was sitting on a stool holding her little dog when the tornado hit, but afterward couldn’t find him. It would be hard to imagine locating anything in the rubble, but as she spoke, a member of the camera crew spotted a dog’s head poking out of the twisted remains of her home. “Well I thought God just answered one prayer to let me be OK, but he answered both of them,” she said, before a bystander led her away from the ruins with her dog.
You can watch the video of the interview.
The tornado that had the highest rating of E-5 killed 24 people, injured 237, completely damaged some 1,200 homes and affected 12,000 residents of Moore, Okla. If you want to help people like Garcia and others get back on their feet, you can make a contribution to the Red Cross.
