  1. I was born in Illinois and I came to Texas when I was 4 years old. THIS state has been so kind. The helping hands mentality of the people of Texas is honestly so pure and beautiful.

  3. I remember that whole experience. I lived in a first floor of a apartment but the thing is that me, my mom and my dog were if Louisiana for family during the hurricane, after the hurricane we rushed home and everything was destroyed. We were homeless. We lived in a hotel for about 4-5 months looking for a house. I was in 5th grade. It wasn’t fun coming back from school and going to a hotel as a “home” everything is fine now, we have a house and everything is fine.

  4. God's blessings to all those brave men & rescue workers, who risked life & limb to save their fellow Americans. and to the victims and survivors' God's speed. Chief Art Avecedo, not onlt are you a leader. I never realized how attractive you are.

  5. We should bring latest technologies to protect rescuers from risking their own lives to save others. We have greatest cutting-edge technologies like AI, IoT, Blockchain, Cloud computing and drones to save lives. I did a power point presentation to show how to use these technologies to rescue lives during a hurricane disaster without putting the lives of rescuers at risk. Please take a look. It is very interesting to see how these technologies work together to save lives.

  6. I was in an area where the hurricane hit the hardest although my house didnt get flooded our because its elevated from the ground luckily
    And my dad had this 4×4 truck and he was driving around seeing if anyone needed help and he had gotten these three woman and they had stayed with us until it was over

  7. Its so fantastic seeing these strong brave kind unselfish MEN caring for the helpless children , seniors and women

  8. I am so blessed that this has not happened in my part of the neighborhood or where I lived I mean I could have probably died if they were that strong as in the video but luckily it didn’t rip apart my house

  9. What Texas showed the world after the hurricane is we are Americans and we are a big dysfunctional family who drop everything to help their fellow Americans in need

  10. Thank goodness! It shows that lessons were learned and history didn't repeat itself as with Katrina. Animals were kept with their families and strangers helping strangers. In the midst of all this strife, it warms my heart to see humanity pulling together for the greater good. Bless everyone who gave a helping hand.

  11. In Canada, there are lots of stores asking for donations for the Red Cross to be added to our purchases … Alberta, Canada is known as "The Texas of the North" because we're very similar to Texas, lots of ranches, farms and oil. I can say that as devastating as this is, I'm glad to see how much better this disaster is being handled than Katrina was handled.
    Our hearts are with Texans during this time <3
