I found out yesterday that two of my cousins and their families stayed in Houma and were going to ride out the storm. I kept up with them on their FB pages, and their last posts were yesterday morning.
I don't know what they were thinking, and they had plenty of time the day before to evacuate. They could have stayed with my cousin that lives in Winnfield or even with me. My cousin in Winnfield did everything he could to convince them to leave and stay with him, but they insisted that they were going to wait out this storm.
I've seen on the news all the horrific damage which included destroyed homes. I'm asking for prayers for them because I don't know if they're alive or dead. There's no way to contact them because of all the power lines being down. I'm pretty upset at the moment because they had vehicles they could have left in ... they had a way to leave.
