Thank you Lord she is alive. God bless her and her family.
Thank you lord so many died.
@@mikehawk4714 god only gets the GLORY! Praise the Lord!
@@Danny451 I agree. Praise the Lord for the children who died by this storm.
@@mikehawk4714 Yes, Christian logic has always baffled me.
@@Danny451 That's the issue, Logic and Reasoning do not mix well with Religions.
"Scared of every sound now" - PTSD, like so many of the survivors are going to suffer with. So sad! God be with them.
Took some years in recover
When asked how she’s doing and she said “I don’t know”….I could see the pain & suffering in her face. So heartbreaking. Thankful she made it & I pray she gets the help she needs to feel safe again. ❤️
I was thinking the same thing. So sad 😥
Yeup omg she's brave.
As a tornado survivor, it's been 20 years since and I've had professional counseling for years and I STILL HAVE PTSD from it! I panic when the alarms sound, and I've become somewhat of an amateur meteorologist with it comes to severe thunderstorms because of it! My family members that didn't go through it think I go overboard, sitting on the bed with a motorcycle helmet on and putting helmets on the kids until it's time to go in the basement (didn't have at the time) then hiding underneath the pool table in horror! Waking up to constant nightmares, and swearing u see a funnel cloud in all the night storms! If someone screams at night for whatever reason your mind goes back to hearing ur neighbors screaming during the tornado but ur helpless to do anything. Yes it lingers for quite some time!
That story is absolutely insane. What a brave young lady and thank goodness she was okay. I can't even imagine how scary that had to be right when the power went out. Hope she makes a full recovery both mentally and physically.
Yes! Praying 🙏 for her ✝️💗
God bless her and thank you Lord for being with her through such a traumatic storm! Please continue to hold her close!
God bless 🙌
There was another story from around 1992 even more bizarre than this one. In southern Florida a tornado hit a trailer park tearing the roofs off of mobile homes and just decimating them. One couple didn't have time to get to their 6 month old baby and the father was thrown a very long distance from the mobile home and survived mith multiple broken bones. In the after math the father managed to hobble back to what was left of his trailer. His wife was still alive but buried under their couch and lots of debri but the baby was nowhere to be found. When the father finally got his wife uncovered and conscious she broke down and told him that she saw the tornado take their baby into the air and their 6 month old little girl just disappeared! They feared for her life thinking they would never see her again. But as it turned out one of their neighbors, an elderly gentleman, happened to be in his home and it wasn't completely devastated like those across the street were. Upon heading over to his neighbor's house he heard a baby cooing! He called for the father and the two men began looking through the rubble but no baby! Then, out of the blue the neighbor happened to be standing next to a man's dresser that was standing upright near a tree that wasn't hit by the tornado. And he heard the baby again! He started opening the drawers and about 3 drawers down was the young couple's 6 month old baby (in a blanket no less!!!) And she was fine!!! The tornado had literally picked her up and tossed her gently into a dresser that it had already discharged and closed the drawer over top of her and the dresser kept her safe from flying debris!!! Now...if that's not far more bizarre than this story is then I don't know what is!!! The news stations called it an act of God because it clearly saved that baby from any harm! When I saw this on the news back then I almost choked on my morning coffee!!! Talk about a miracle!
God bless her . Unbelievable she survived after being sucked up in the tornado and thrown into the woods
Jasmine, you are a walking miracle!! Praying you get all the help you need and then some!
Yes, all of the adults and children who died, we just pray god "blesses their families." The ones who survived, then it's a MIRACLE! I think the real miracle would have been they ALL survived.
@@Danny451 if you practice stoping yourself from surrendering over into the ignorance cocked within the trigger of binary unconscious; you will find the ultimate power is hidden in beauty: and understand why surrender manifests as attraction in your life!!! Not power, not accomplishment, not attainment: Rather; beauty alone is the ordital wonder of galaxies!!! One woman's survival is a galaxy of forgiveness!!! 😎
@@liambenyamin5482 Are you joking? If not, what the heck are you talking about?
Stop praying she gets the help she need and maybe reach out to her and help lol bruh smh 🤦♂️

She’s a walking miracle. God bless her.
she is not she was thrown into the woods and walked to the nabors she has a broke leg she is not walking then later said she walked throw her living room to the nabors how dose that happen ?
@@newsnowtammylynnlynn484 it’s called adrenaline and shock .
later it hits you. She said she didn’t even know she was bleeding she probably limped I was in a rollover car accident and someone saw me walking. I don’t even remember crawling out my broken window my car was upside down. I couldn’t even feel anything until well after I got to the hospital and couldn’t walk by myself the next day
@@newsnowtammylynnlynn484 Limping or not she is a walking miracle, God has a way of waking all up to reality.
My Perspective, why didn't god give the other adults and children their "miracle?" I could never understand Christian logic.
Miracles around them so many were not ment to die
Incredible. Her bathtub must have protected her in the very worst of it, then she was flung so far away. I think most people would die under such forces of nature, but she survived.
I hope she talks to someone. This is just awful. I had PTSD from an earthquake. 16 people died in the apt building next to mine. I didn't want to sleep inside. I cried because no one would sleep in the car with me and finally went into the house with friends, but I was in a daze for weeks, and then was paranoid and slept in clothes for a while. I can't imagine what she went through. It's going to take a long time for her to feel safe again. I'm thankful she's alive. That whole town is probably shell-shocked at this point.
Wow... I can only imagine. 🤧
Your experience is what is helps people understand how it really feels to live thru something like this ! I’m glad you lived to tell .
I’m so sorry you went through that, and to not have a friend to be there for you like you needed. If I was there, I would have slept in the car with you and helped get you to therapy. ☹️we as people need to do better to those we deem as friends and family.
I presume that you lived next to the Northridge Meadows Apartment building that pancaked down in the 1994 Northridge quake. When the 1971 Sylmar quake hit, I was living in Northridge, and slept in my clothes for a few weeks after that. It was so unnerving with the aftershocks to try to get some restful sleep. What a harrowing story this gal has of survival!
Was this by any chance the Northridge quake?
She is so strong and absolutely gorgeous! She looks a lot like my 12 y.o daughter (though I could never imagine my baby going thru something of this magnitude). She gets my absolute respect for her courage and poise in the face of such tragedy.
She is really cute. I noticed that too.
More Love 💟💟💟💟💟👍💯♥️
Isn't she!! I thought she was a little girl!! Her spirit is a beautiful one!!! I'm truly happy that God preserved her through this ordeal!!!
She's extremely well-composed to have just survived a NDE.
A grown woman looks like your 12 year old daughter???
What a sweet woman....My heart breaks for her and everyone who went through this. Happy to see she'll be ok though.
Right ? Nice to hear a survival story. Sending peace & love to all of them
I love her name, too. Sounds like she flew in her bathtub for a while...that is amazing
She's a sweety. Glad she made it and hope she can deal with her PTSD.
I’m really proud of Jasmine for not needing to put a happy spin in the answer to the question about how she is doing now. Her answer was so perfect. Many folks try to sort of cheer up the interviewer, y try he camera crew or the audience. Admitting you are struggling shows real strength and humanizes us all.
Yes!
I'm sure you being proud of this woman is a game changer.
what....
She’s a true miracle 😇
Just her though. The rest were killed. Praise the lord

*HUH?*
@@letscuthairtoday9038 Exactly
@@mikehawk4714 huh??
Huh
I cried the entire time I pray God gives her back everything she lost may God be with all of you as a Kentucky native.may god bless her.
Thank God she wasn't 'thrown' into anything or that no debris hit her. INCREDIBLE!!!
True! She could have been really bad off
Tim, there were adults and children who were thrown and had debris hit them. So did you thank "god" for that too? Probably not because god only gets the GLORY! Praise the Lord!
@@Danny451I'm pretty sure "thank god" was being used as an expression there
@@melodiefrances3898 Well my bad then.
@@Danny451 He wrote what he wrote. You do not thank God for it, you thank God in spite of it. All praise, glory, and honor go to the Creator and God of us all because *He is who He is* regardless to hollow opinions and prideful mockery..from men who are truly but a vapor and less than that without the spirit of God and His breath of life in them.
The fact she somehow remained in a rolling bathtub for such a distance is hard to imagine. The way a human body can be so resilient in the midst of such destruction is also not easy to imagine. I wish her very well and a full recovery, both in her health and her life.
Her soft voice and manners 🥺 like I’m so glad she’s okay! This made me tear up so bad because she just seems so calm and brave after all of this. I pray she is able to get on her feet figuratively and literally 💕
I think it is shock. She has not recovered mentally or emotionally. Numbness looks like calm.
She cut that young woman off right when she probably needed to talk the most ... I hope the young woman can get support for the trauma she has experienced. ❤
Yes. It was rude.
I thought the same when I saw that.
But now I suspect the reporter was protecting her, actually...when she realized that Jasmine was struggling to relay something she very likely is still processing and re-living in her mind over and over. The reporter's question wasn't an easy one. I think she was giving her an out so her mind didn't have to go to those dark places on tv. I think that she was looking out for her.
The reporter also seemed upset, in fairness. It can't be easy to witness such trauma. I bet she promised people that any interview would be really quick and that if the stress level rose, she would wrap it up straight away.
@@TTheBiehlster that’s exactly right!
Oh my goodness, incredible story!
My heart goes out to everyone affected. Sending this young lady love and light, I have no words.
A living Miracle. Praise God. Hallelujah.
@@angham3829 🙏🙏🇧🇷🇧🇷
Love joy.an happy need 👍👍👍👍👍
Wow I never heard a tornado story from a person.. glad she is still here to tell us about it ❤️ Hope for a quick recovery
Chills... That poor baby!! So brave!! Praying for her and all victims of these storms... 😔💔🙏
She was a brave young lady, and she said she walked. Remember, when you go through a ordeal like she did, the person is in SHOCK. People in Shock, have walked away with broken necks, arms, legs, cuts, abrasions, all sorts of injuries. So she was tossed out side, and was able to get up and walk on a broken leg. Shock did that. Body was in shock mode. And to live to tell about it, is by God's grace. God is with all those people who lost their homes, businesses, and loved ones, and some pets. He will not abandon them. Spiritually, he will make sure they get the comfort they need. They will have to live with this nightmare for a long time. If they can get proper help they will get it. If they don't want it cause they are being charged (which is evil if some doctors do) knowing their circumstances. It's their decisions. But she is still in semi shock. So glad to have heard her story of how she survived these tornado's!
Friends, I say this in love that none more perish. What happened is because God is very tired of the unrepentant people treating what happened to HIS Son as if it is meaningless. Because they refuse to repent by taking John's baptism of repentance according to Acts2:38 as commanded in Acts17:30. Please read Mark16:16 and Acts17:30 and Matthew3:11. Unless everyone everywhere repent they will perish! People who refuse will incur God's wrath because they're mocking God's Son Jesus Christ. By acting like what he did, his blood and suffering isn't important. People do not understand that God is a HOLY SPIRIT and ALL people fall short of achieving God's glorious standards which is why God in HIS LOVE sent HIS only begotten Son Jesus.. Jesus ( through his blood atonement to appease God ) became the mediator who stands BETWEEN God and US. Jesus stands between God and those who believe ( repent ) Without Jesus Christ the wrath of God is apon you and you will perish and be cast into eternal hellfire come judgement day. Repent by going to the river "confessing your sins" because Jesus can't help those who think they're righteous!... God's Son Jesus come for those who know they're sinners next to a perfect God...and take John's baptism of repentance according to Acts2:38 for the forgiveness of your sins and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. Jesus said those who believe in him even though they yet die they will yet live. Believe this? Jesus come to bring "sinners" to repentance and reconcile them back to God. Repent friends, Time is short.
Y’all both sound crazy there is no god 😩
@@uwu1832 That's *your* opinion and you don't need to bully those of us who believe.
You were making sense until you went into god mode. I guess your god hated all the people who died and lost their children and loved ones. Plus of course, everything they owned.
@@michelesmith2620 ..Our God Doesn’t Hate His People…He Hates Their Ways…How The Evil People Are To Others!
What a strong young lady. She is so lucky to be alive after what she went through. Survivors will go through a period where every bad weather forecast heightens fear, especially if their area is under a tornado watch. At least now they have the experience of what they are dealing with if another tornado touches down where they live.
William Shatner and his wife (I have no clue if they are still married) built a dome-style house somewhere in Kentucky and the walls were made out of 2x10 or 2x12 and supposed to withstand winds up to 210 miles per hour. I wonder if they got hit at all and how their house fared in this nasty storm?
@@littleshepherdfarm2128 its nice to have the money to do that but I would want higher than 210...the most violent tornadoes will exceed 210 easily and as you go up in wind speed the damage is geometric...a 250mph will destroy alot more than 210 even though its only 40 greater
@@tom56ism I know. I just thought it was interesting that William Shatner and wife might have been on that storm. Probably not cuz we're not hearing anything about them so...
@@littleshepherdfarm2128 Ya think the Shatners's were home?
When the power is out in that situation, it's going to be pitch black, so much debris, steel, and nails sticking out, it's a damn miracle she made it to someone for help. Very sweet woman, I hope she can heal from this mentally and physically.
Very nice of you to be concerned for her. You seem to be a caring person. I have a question for you why would you use The D word with miracle?
@@levornspencer5752 I guess it wasn't the best choice of a word to put in front of a word like that. It was my emphasis on how serious, and scary the situation must have been. People speak differently in different regions of the u.s. I am a southerner.
@@coupe50h yes, much love to you. Stay close to Jesus Christ and stay safe please. Much love
@@levornspencer5752 you too, I appreciate the civil conversation, it's not always easy on social media sometimes.
No mention of the others who were at home with her
Poor girl I'm glad she made it out okay, praying she makes a full recovery ♥♥♥♥♥
You're so pretty. Happy Holidays; I subbed.🌹
Wow! I can't imagine how she felt, must have been absolutely terrifying. :( I hope she gets the support she needs!
Me too because I almost teared up for her and the other victims
Hi Krossy. How are you doing I hope you are having a wonderful day. I will love to ask you a question if you don’t mind.?
what a nightmare. It would be nice to know if she is staying in a shelter or how they're looking after the victims of the disaster.
It's my understanding they really don't have any place to go. No big stadium or large buildings left
People are burning their belonging to stay warm. Nowhere to go.
They want the "survivors" to go to a FEMA camps. Which is the worst place for them to be. FEMA camps are concentration camps. If they go in, the odds of them coming out are 0.
@@JenFromCa84 I'm in Mayfield and if anybody is burning their things to stay warm it is only by choice. There is a place for everybody to go. They are putting people in motels/hotels free of charge and there are many shelters at churches and other places. Many of us have damaged houses but they are still standing. We are staying warm with generators that churches are loaning out.
@@origirox There are some buildings left. They have put people in motels/hotels in the surrounding area. There are also warm shelters and hot food at many of the local churches. Nobody is being overlooked. If they need something all they have to do is ask.
What, I've never heard so many stories of people/families being actually inside the twister, spit out and survive as I've heard this week. What a story to tell .
These stories are rare, I would love to hear their stories!
My heart is flooding with tears 🥲Lord thank you for this miracle..
OMG! I can’t even imagine........I’m glad she is ok and I hope the other person that was mentioned is alright as well. Prayers for all impacted by this mind blowing tragedy! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I cannot IMAGINE! Prayers to everyone affected
I can't begin to comprehend what she has been through. It brought tears to my eyes and I just had to pray for her.
Same here. I had to pray for her. You can tell she is not doing well.
I’m glad you’re alive and have minor injuries considering the size and destruction of this tornado.
During the Ringgold, GA tornado, a local school teacher says “I was taking a shower, next thing I knew I was sliding down road and tumbling” she got up and went to a house, and still naked. They say she was thrown about 200 yards. She was badly bruised and several broken bones but still lived through it.
😳 Her car was in her living room and found she had ended up in the woods!! She was still in a state of shock during this interview. Her whole town will be suffering from the distressing symptoms of ptsd. I hope she is holding up alright a week later and her family too!! She is so brave and courageous. God bless her and keep her safe 🙏❤
my heart goes out to this young lady. I just want to hug her. she is a brave soul. I hope she realizes how brave she is.
I’m so glad she’s ok this is a terrible situation for everyone
What a beautiful young lady. I pray she's able to get some rest. My heart hurts for everyone affected. I can not even begin to imagine what they went through. Sending prayers and hugs for all ❤️
Unbelievable ….. I cannot imagine the fear these survivors endured .
Yeah, at least if she died like the many others there would be nothing to fear.
@@mikehawk4714 what???????
Mike Hawk Your sick!
Prayers for this woman and everyone affected by this tornado. Seeing the footage on here is nothing you have to see it in person to see just what these people are going through. I'm in Paris Tennessee not far from Kentucky where this tornado came through. God bless you Mam I am so thankful that you are alive.
Super close. I've been antiquing in Paris.
We're in Dresden. Community is so important in these times. Thankfully we were outside Dresden and faired ok.
Imagine getting picked up, like a feather in the wind throwing you around and your completely helpless to whatever you fly into.
That thought alone is enough to give me anxiety

My God...fighting tears. I'm so sorry for Kentucky right now.
and for the other states too that were hit, wasn't just Kentucky.
Poor child, what a terrifying experience to go through! She sounds like a sweet person, hope the best for all those poor people going through such a scary event! 😥
I wish the newscaster had not cut her off. I was interested in hearing how this event affected her psychology. And talking, just for a few moments more might have helped her some--rather than cutting her short. She is the 2nd survivor I've heard who said they couldn't sleep.
I thoughtful the SAME exact thing!
Don’t have a shelter, solid interior room, or a basement? Your best bet is to climb in a bathtub with a mattress on top. Decades ago my friend and three grand babies rode out a tornado in southern Indiana.
All these incredible survivor stories makes my heart weep. I just want them all to come live with me, so I can hug them and tell them how much people all over the Midwest and Country have them in their prayers. You’re so brave young lady, when you try to sleep, just know people are thinking of your well-being. 🙏🙏🙏
Now you have me in tears with this sweet message. ❤️
She is a PERFECT example of being in the LORD'S HANDS.
Yes she prayed to Jesus for sure. He covered her.
Well said! For indeed, she was in the Lord's hands.
Yea he killed 70 others just for her. Thanks jesus.
@@Sydow93 No need to be so sarcastic about it, we all have our time to exit this life, it just wasn't her time, just like it's not yours time or mine. It's always going to be GOD'S choice, if you don't know this by now where have you been?
@@Sydow93 I think you should ask God yourself and ask why he allows things to happen the way they do. He will reveal the truth to you. Find a quiet place by yourself and ask him.

Literally wow
Alot of people are still missing because that tornado took them away.

Lady, YOU ARE A WARRIOR!!! So happy you I survived; stay strong and keep moving forward. My very best wishes to you. Lindsay, Sacramento, California ❤
I'll bet she's clean now too.
Sweet love....my heart hurts for her...I can feel the trauma coming through screen... May God bless her and everyone that experienced these storms. 🥺
Amazing story. So happy she's alive. Where there is life, there is hope!
Wow!!!! I'm so happy she survived!! Beautiful girl ! 🙏
What a sweet woman. Many prayers for that wonderful woman.
This poor baby is going to suffer from PTSD. I pray for her recovery both physically and mentally. 😔
I cannot imagine being what she's been through and making sense of it for the prying news-persons.
Amazing young lady. ❤
Wow poor lady, it could’ve been worse if she wasn’t in her tub. Hope she doesn’t get burden with thousands in medical bills like America loves to do. ❤️
I think you're quite right. She used the best shelter available to her.
Let’s hope that the hospital corporate giants will be kind to her !
I work for an ISP in this area and the devastation is just incredible in Mayfield specifically. You can see the track the tornado took all across the counties in this area when you travel along the highway, county roads, and backroads…you see it’s path of destruction everywhere it’s insane.
Dear Lord my heart goes out to this young lady. Prayers for you and everyone that has been affected by these horrific storms.
God love her, she seems like she might STILL be in a little bit of emotional/mental shock!!! To be aware every single moment that was going on must've been inexplicably terrorizing & one of those "life flashes before your eyes" moments for sure, especially once she had to pick herself up & seek help!!!! I feel so much sadness for everyone involved. I used to live in Kentucky for a min & they're such loving & generous people! I KNOW they will be ok & will support each other through this! SO heartbreaking for everyone involved!!!
You’re so right and she interviewed well in spite of her lack of sleep which really takes a toll on your mental functioning and emotional stability, I truly hope they are all getting something for the ptsd soon.
So right. She's been through so much and I hope she gets all the help she needs to get through this.
Bless her heart, after the interview I wish I could have reached through and hugged her and let her know so many are thinking about her, and tell her it's going to be ok.
Me too!!!!
God bless this young woman. What a frightening event, she acted bravely, and is smart. Get well soon!
Hi Lisa how are you doing. I will love to ask a question if you don’t mind?.
Jasmine, sending love and prayer’s from New Mexico! You are one brave girl. And very fortunate!
What a sweet young lady, I'm so glad she is alive. Praying for her!
Miracle she survived. She was probably in shock & running on adrenaline that she probably wasn't feeling the pain of her broken leg.
Omg! I can't even imagine what these people are going through. My prayers for this sweet young lady. Hugs to you
I’m glad she survived. Hope they found more people who are missing. Condolences to the families.
Love 💖
That poor girl! So glad she made it out alive and hope the woman she heard was able to be rescued.
I can't imagine being thrown that way, tossed like a rag doll! I hope these folks all have warm places to shelter while they try to recover.
What a sweet angel. She survived even through the chaos and will continue on. Poor girl, I can't even imagine, but she's clearly so strong and meant to be here. 💖💖💖💖
This brings tears to my eyes. I've been picked up in my bathroom like that when a Tornado hit my trl I was in.thankful to be alive. Luckily it came during daytime. I got pneumonia and bruised up but made it out alive.it threw my husband outsìde.then sucked him bk in.his head hit the ground and left a knot but we made it
Omg! So happy and thankful to God for sparing!
God be with you all
Did you get pneumonia from inhaling all that debri ??
What was going through your mind? Um lady I went from my bathroom to the woods in 3.5 seconds. What do you think? Brave woman.
Fr 🤣🤣🤣
Angels were watching over her! 😇
Too bad the rest of the angels were to busy to help the other folks who died.
Wow. This poor babe. She is one strong, gentle soul. I'm so happy for her and her family she's survived. She is still in shock. I know the news wants to report the most intimate, dramatic stories, but they need to be more humane when approaching these victims.
I remember news stations all over the US asking if they could interview me as a Cat 5 was barrelling through my home/community. I was trying to save some of the people in my community, get them to better shelter as they didn't have the means. The last thing I wanted was to waste my time being exploited. The high majority of residents on the island didn't talk to news crew except, only a rare few that had evacuated multiple states away and welcomed the attention, most likely sought the reporters out . So happy this brave woman is alive to tell her story. I hope time is gracious in healing her wounds.
Well said.
I'd be scared as hell to go through this alone. I would be freaking out
Me too and I’m a man

I had to tear up a little hearing her get emotional at the end of the interview. She is so strong
Praises to the Most High she's ok. I hope she's healing physically and emotionally. 💕🙏
Poor girl, what an ordeal. Thank God she survived.
How to we "thank god" to the adults and children who died?
poor baby - she’s still in shock. she’s so pretty and such a lovely disposition. i’m glad she got in the tub - probably saved her life.
i do hope she gets treatment for the PTSD. she’s completely stressed out and the noises will continue to startle and scare her unless she gets some help and maybe meds for awhile. good luck, sweet, feel better soon. :) 🌷🌿🌼🌱🌷🌈
Wishing her time to heal. She reminded me of people in Northern Ireland who still jump when an oven timer goes off. I'm hoping she can get through with help. I can't imagine what it was like to get through that and have nowhere to go.
How did she manage to stay in the tub as it flew and rolled around? That is amazing!
Bless her heart……she will never forget, and have fear.
I am sending big strong calming hugs!! I hope for a speedy physical recovery, and a path of emotional and mental recovery that is full of love!!
Bless her and everyone. I hope her family survived as well. 🙏💙🙏💙🙏
You don't forget what a tornado sounds like. That shit is crazy loud
Heartbreaking when she paused😪. Praise God she is alive!!!!!! Prayers sent her way from Tuscaloosa Alabama 🙏🙏🙏💜💜💜✝️✝️✝️
Omg God bless her i can't even imagine how scary that was for her she is so brave
That’s sad she was alone and all they happened. I’m in Louisville and it was a scary night hearing the wind blowing like crazy and how much rain there was, I’m from miami so it sounded and felt like a hurricane x20! So I could not imagine how intense it was in Mayfield not too far from here. Praying for them all.
What an amazing story! Brave lovely lady, Jasmine.
She's such a sweetie, I hope she finds peace again soon
God bless her.
I'm glad she survived this story is wild damn I even heard about the story of the women and her child flying around in the mattress and survived as well
There was an angel protecting her. She’s so lucky she can share her amazing scary story. My heart goes out to all impacted from this devastation
My home state has tornadoes and was affected as well. I remember when I was in junior high school, one hit. I was terrified. It sounds like an invisible mega train in the sky. When we got stationed in this one state I thought the tornadoes were a thing of the past. Then one evening there was an earthquake (fault line runs right through that area) and because we were not far from Florida, we got Hurricane weather too. My condolences to the families who lost loved ones. So glad this young lady took her mom's advice and that she is alive!
