Your in my prayers. Went through the same thing last year. I live on the east coast of florida. Stay safe. Hope your able to find a safe place to evacuate to.

Right now the hurricane models don't indicate that it will hit Florida.

I was just reading the news and it says this is of historic proportion and not seen for decades that a hurricane this size would hit landfall.....it's very scary for you I'm sure..... I'm so sorry for all who are effected as over a million have been evacuated and more to go. Just keep moving out of there and know your getting to safety. Bring your pillow and blanket if that will help comfort you somewhat...something familiar.....hang in there.

in reply to fauxartist

Yes like Faux said bring pillows and a pregnancy pillow

Wishing you the best, for staying safe and getting to a safe shelter and back . May you find peace with your family around you. Hope you also can take some kind of snacks and music /books that you like.

I was watching the news this one is the worse of the worse be careful on the road, hope you get to where you're going safely

They always scare people more than they have to. Every storm is of biblical proportions these days. You are heeding the evacuation. What more can you do? You would think hurricanes never occurred before if you watch the weather reports.

TheGirlWithGlasses in reply to MightyM1

Yes me and the baby are okay, waiting on my due date, there's tons of resources, food water and a lot of volunteers were around helping us out thank heaven, we filled an application to get help for the house, the hurricane did some heavy damages to the property
