My parents and my sister were preparing for a trip to
Boston. My mother was to receive an award at an event. I was not to attend, so
I was staying with my grandparents in Northern Michigan. On a hot and sticky
Monday night, a tornado struck and severely damaged our home at 1:30 a.m.
My sister does not wear her hearing aids to bed which made
her very difficult to awaken. Precious seconds were wasted and, as a result, my
mother and sister barely avoided harm. They just made it to the basement
stairway as the tornado struck. Where they had been standing literally one
second prior was destroyed. One second could have meant the difference between
life and death. One second. It was overwhelming for me. I felt helpless. My
whole family could have been killed and I wasn’t there to help, and when I
thought about it, I couldn’t have done anything anyway.
