Here is the problem I"m running into. I need bodies. My mom lives in Sherwood by Flannery. She is literally shell shocked. She is in her 70's. lost everything in one day. They have a couple of people helping them and the house is nearly gutted but they still have the kitchen to do. That means the cabinets have not yet been pulled as of yesterday when I left. Bathrooms haven't been gutted yet eitehr and yes, I know about the mold. I'm going down today with a commercial dehumidifier and industrial fans but I can't do it all by myself.

Just plain need help and frankly don't know where to go for it.

Post a way for people on here to contact you. Also include day and time of a concentrated effort. I've been part of gutting 7 houses. When you can arrange a coordinated effort, I goes quick.

I'll watch for your update and will try to help myself or route people to you.

It sucks to feel that way, but please know that the help will come. Get the word out to nearby areas that were not flooded and use Facebook too, get friends to use Facebook on your behalf. Churches, schools and other charitable groups are organizing. People will help.

Good luck.

I'll be at her place at 3:00 tomorrow. I've got 3-4 friends coming to help so far. I'm sure that number will go up overnight.

If any posters want to help out Near Goodwood Blvd at Sherwood Forest post info on how i can contact you.

Edit: we are up to 10 people now.
