Diapers.

Those babies have to pee and crap somewhere, and diapers run out quickly.

Texas Diaper Bank

I was listening to the Megan 2 channel recap a couple of hours ago. Apparently, the last they heard from rescuers, she was being rescued.

Basically, someone on the Megan 2 channel got in touch with someone who was rescuing his brother in that apartment complex she was originally claiming she was in. They went into her apartment and rescued her little girls and left her overnight; she reached someone from the channel on Facebook and messaged with him all night. She was supposedly rescued this morning in a separate rescue, according (I think) to some of the actual rescuers on the channel. Last I heard, they were working on finding her name listed in the hospitals/shelters to verify.

redstick I'm still concerned about the elderly man on oxygen who was locked in his house. But that was two days ago at least.

Anyone from North LA wanting to head down there to help? I'm in West Monroe and can get off the rest of the week if needed. Who's with me?

There are over 3,000 calls for help on that channel now. The fact that there is no reported death in his area is a good sign.

Unless they weren't able to get to him but I sure hope that's not the case.
