    Dominica is one of my favorite places in the world. I have been there many times over the last twenty years. Naturally, I have many friends there whom I am concerned about. One of the many I am concerned about is my friend Julien Giraud who lives on Cornwall street in Roseau. I am praying for the people there and will think of what I can do to organize some relief from here in South Carolina.

    I deeply admire what you have done in the filming and youtubeing of this video. We don't see this in the news. Wee need people like you taking the painful time to give us the painful details.I'm in the southern part of Northern Ontario, where we can not really comprehend this kind of destruction. But many people here send what spare funds they may have and certainly send love and prayers and thoughts and make sure you are in our hearts in a new way, because we are all citizens of Earth.

    What a good reportage, we can feel the desolation. Humans and dogs are stunned.
    So sorry for this beautifull island ( I visited Dominica and Roseau in 1976 for a few days, and allready then, it was more exotic, authentic than most carribean islands). The architecture, or what is left of it, is pretty and colourfull, not ugly, concrete as in Saint Martin. I wih you lots of courage, you have there a jewel which need all the attention and dedication of its inhabitants to make it as beautifull as it was before, with these delicate houses and vibrant colours. Bon courage!

    Excellently produced video. Really highlights the mammoth task ahead for Dominica. Just a tip: whenever recording outside, always use a deadcat on your microphone. (That's what it's called. Google it. Works wonders to eliminate wind noise.)
    You can rest assured that Barbados stands with you at this difficult time. This is probably worse than the destruction wrought by Hurricane David.

    We thank the Lord for His Mercies and Loving Kindness and power inthe Blood of Jesus/Blood of the Lamb. My daughter was at Ross on the Island i had been begging her after the Houston fiasco to leave the island but she would not. Anyway God is Merciful inthe end as there was nothing i could do i told her to just carry on pleading the blood of Jesus /Blood of the Lamb as in the Old Testament when God said when He sees the Blood on the house the angel of death will not stop there. Praise God there is power inthe Blood of Jesus. I really thank the Lord as it could have been worse ..whats worse than a Cat 5? having one or any of the 9Active Volcanos go off at the same time is what is worse...

      Helen, I;ve been going online to absradio.com, tdnradio.com and wice q95fm to get news on what's going on in Dominica. One of them had reported to Scott's Head was OK, But I have not been able to confirm that. I'm also from Scott's Head and have a lot of relatives there. tdnradio's facebook page should have more info that I can put in here. ALSO if you are able to TEXT your folks, instead of calling on your cell, or via whatsapp, you're more likely to get through. That's how we've been communicating. God bless..

    So sad to see the gems of the Caribbean so destroyed. Such a long way to recovery. Yes, covering roofs, getting power & running water back is priority. After that the focus should be turned to rebuilding the tourist areas. The sooner tourists come back, the more money locals will have to rebuild their lives. Just so sad. I hope the locals put all of the wood and tree debris in a lot to dry out. Let the local artist and woodworkers use the wood for making furniture and art pieces. Benches, coat trees, mirror frames, picture frames, beds, live edge shelves, lamps, handles for woven bags & baskets, etc. A lot of little things can be made to to sell to tourists utilizing the debris. There is a way to utilize the destruction for some gain. Granted the easiest thing to do is scoop it all up, bury it, burn it, or ship it off to be disposed of. However, a little planning now will be rewarding in the long term.
