UPDATE from Darleen 4/2/10


PICS: I will show you this pic... The river Rising

My front of the house Had to get out


UPDATED 3/31/10 Darleen sends her sincere thanks for your prayers. The rain that has inundated the East Coast the last few days only caused the river by her house to rise but it stopped at the top of their retaining wall. She says she knows it would not have been so, without your prayers.

UPDATED 3/28/10 Darleen appreciates all the prayers and positive thoughts and is still in need of more please.


She is in the midst of cleaning up, repairing, and trying to get back to a normal life. She is filing her insurance papers but to add insult to injury they are calling for 5 more inches of rain now.

Rosie is with her sister, her brother and his kids are back up by her oldest brother and her hubby hurt his back on the rescue boat trying to lift a heavy man onto the boat.

It will be awhile before her life returns to normal and stress is mounting. Please keep her in your thoughts.

******************************

Please keep Darleen in your thoughts and prayers for strength to get through the flooding she is experiencing again.

Some of you may remember the flooding she went through a few years ago, well she's way deep in water again and is having a difficult time getting through the situation.

She sends her love and misses you all.


Ana

awww,dar - miss you too ! best thoughts and hugs - hoping you get through with as little damage as possible.

I was wondering about you when I was reading some things on-line about the flooding there. I was so hoping you wouldn't get it again. Hang in there and come see us when you can.

Ah, Darleen, prayers of strength going up for you and your family.

Aw Darleen sorry to hear this. I have been wondering about that with all the snow this winter and rain.

Hugs and prayers headed your way. Keep the chin up and try to look on the brightside.

Glad to hear you are ok.

Hi Everyone.....Hi MaG...

I want to Thank You all again for your well wishes for me...

I wanted to take a moment to say Thank You again, and to let you know I am coming along ok.....

I miss my games,and I miss you all so much...I also miss posting here at Boomers so much...

I want to show you this clip at Utube that a friend took at the exact time the gates where open at that dam in Pompton Lakes that is causing the problems for us down stream... Here

We all now have retain a lawyer for a class action suit against the operators of the dam.We never had this flooding years a go until they built that dam in 2005....

Well....I will be back soon.....

I love you all.....

Ana...((HUGS))) Hope Merlin is OK... :spring: Happy Spring

hey, darlene - good to hear from you - your seat in the diner is waiting whenever you get there !

Oh, my goodness, Dar. Amazing video... I thought one of the purposes of dams was flood control, not controlled flooding of people's homes. I'd have to wonder about the engineering of something that is unable to handle periodic heavy seasonal rainfall. I certainly hope all of you get some satisfaction.

Hurry back!

Darleen, so good to hear from you!

Sure would not want to get caught up in that!!! Good to hear from you dar. My thoughts are still with you. Hope you get things under control and are able to get back here soon. Take care.

Take care, Darleen.

WooHoo Darleen good to see ya post!! Hope things are coming along ok! Wow no wonder there was flooding........not nice. Continued thoughts and prayers. HUGS!


Nan

Darleen, we miss you! I hope things get straightened out soon.

Good to see you DArleen, hope things are coming along as best as possible.

Merlin is doing better everyday, thanks.

Ana

Darleen, we miss you too. I hope things are getting better.

Hi Darleen03

What a video !!

Still, glad to hear things are improving for you and look forward to seeing you back at Gameboomers

Cheers.

Mad

Good to hear from you, Darleen! Hope things are getting better for you!!

So glad to hear you are doing better, Darleen and that you have your little Rosie by your side. What a horrible ordeal you had to go through. I just hope things keep getting better and better. The swans would make anyone happy!!! You have a terrific attitude and are a very brave lady!
