Hurricane Helene, the deadliest mainland storm since Katrina in 2005, has claimed the lives of 200 people as rescuers continue their search for survivors. The deaths have been reported in South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, North Carolina, Virginia and Tennessee.
The number of people missing is counted in hundreds, and the number of homes left without electricity is nearly a million. Unfortunately, rescue teams face challenges as many roads rendered impassable by the storm’s destruction.
North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper highlighted the severity of the situation, saying that the rugged landscape has made it difficult for many communities to receive any assistance.
Among those who lost their lives is 7-year-old Micah Drye of Asheville, North Carolina. He and his grandparents were swept away by floodwaters after seeking refuge on a rooftop. The boy’s mother, Meghan, survived.
The news of Micah’s death was disclosed by his aunt, Jessica Drye Turner, who also shared the boy’s final words, “Jesus! Please help me!”
The heartbroken aunt expressed her grief and pain over the loss of her sister’s son. “New grief and strong faith. New motto.”
The boy’s lifeless body was located about a quarter mile from where his mother had been rescued.
Meghan’s other sister, Heather Kephart, started a GoFundMe page to help Meghan after the devastating loss of her son, her parents, and all her belongings, including her home.
The fundraising page included a photo of sweet Micah, taken by his grandmother mere days before the tragedy. He could be seen wearing a Jurassic World T-shirt and smiling.
This family’s huge loss is just one of many caused by the devastating storm.
«Age is just a number for her!» Jane Fonda makes appearance at the Film Festival and everyone is saying the same thing
J. Fonda immediately took center stage and established herself as the event’s queen when she made her appearance at the Cannes Film Festival. The celebrity exudes grace and unmatched charisma. She decided on a black outfit and elegant, tasteful jewelry to go with it.
Fonda boldly displayed her red lips and silver gray hair. With her full makeup for the evening, she appeared remarkably younger. Everyone began to agree that she aged like wine, but then all changed when someone pointed out a small detail that revealed her true age.
The whole point is that her hands were wrinkly, revealing that we are genuinely dealing with an 86-year-old woman, despite her impeccable beauty and elegant attire. When asked how she keeps her youthful appearance intact, she emphasizes the necessity of getting enough sleep, smiling a lot, and avoiding the sun.
Nobody can dispute, though, that Fonda continues to exude softness and charm while looking absolutely stunning for her age.
