John Strain gives an audiopost | His house is okay, but the hospital where he works is discharging patients to their families since they have run out of food and while the hospital still has generator produced electricity and water, the city of Covington does not | The release of patients is not a simple task | The folks he works with live at a psychiatric facility, which is normally a home of last resourt for many |
John reports that devastation in city of Covington, LA was "beyond belief" | He noted he might wind up being a disaster relief worker | He plans on audio posting when the phones come back up | He's of the impression that it'll take weeks to get back to some sembalance of ordinariness, and years to rebuild what has been lost |
Now is the time to rebuild, repair, and life goes on, he is thankful to be alive | ¶ 20:27
