Galveston hospital taking on water
This is one horrible storm. The weather channel guy has a guy in Houston. He can hardly stay on his feet.

1. your post made me sad and then your avatar made me laugh out loud. If it's that bad in Houston
Galveston must be swamped. I was hearing about water going over the sea wall or whatever it's called a few hours ago.

4. John Sealy moved the NICU babies out to San Antonio a few days ago
I didn't hear about any other evacuations. Our hospital received evacuees EARLY Friday am.
Oddly enough...there was a disaster movie (true story) about this a couple years ago with Rick Schroeder called "14 Hours". I certainly hope real life works out better than the movie did because it was based on a Tropical Storm...not a massive Hurricane.
I know the Medical Complex is hunkered down. I just hope it's enough.
