I lost everything in Hurricane Katrina. I'm lucky my dad even left because if he would have stayed I would have lost him. I live in New Orleans East and my house took on 7 1/2 feet of water. Before Katrina ever even hit I went out to Brookhaven, Mississippi where Katrina unexpectedly hit also. Once again almost everything gone from clothes to even water. It was a tough experience, but I gained and learned a lot about myself from it.
