Disconnected: A True Hurricane Katrina Story

No power; no running water; no modern day resources; completely surrounded by water. It was like a third world country in a war zone.

They could hear the helicopters flying overhead and see the rescue attempts nearby at the Superdome. They shined flashlights out the window at night with the hope that someone see them. Thirty-something people would gather and hold hands in prayer with the hope of even a word of rescue. They waited and waited. But no one came.
