Re: [TMIC] tornado concern

[Akua]

The tornadoes and extreme lightning hiot here last week. Before the 
tornadoes we lost power about 2 p.m.  My cell phone was low -- so I 
couldn't recharge it. And i could barley get out of bed and debated 
whether to stay or try to get up... since i'm paralyzed, i need 
electricity to move my bed. I called 911 but they didn't answer and i 
was low on on the cell.
they called me back asking what was my emergency. I said I didn't 
have any power  and they answered so what.... and that used up all my 
cell phone.
I have a landline and thought to call the power company. My landline 
was down. Fortunately after
three frightening hours the power came on and then the TV warned of 
the tornado. Where could i go?
What room would be safe?  Paralyzed and in a wheelchair all I could 
do was pry.  It touched down twice and ball lightning lit my house 
and thunder shook it. I was up until 8 a.m. and have just begun to
recover.
