A huge thank you to everyone who has watched our short film, left positive comments, and helped those affected by Helene's devastation from Florida to North Carolina. We’re truly humbled by your love and support, and we wanted to be sure to share a bit more about the journey that led us to pass through Asheville when we did. So first and foremost, we are full-time touring musicians and documentarians, since we’re always on the road, you can find us with a camera in our hands documenting everything just like we would do on any other day. (this is how we got the footage you saw in the film) Since 2018, we’ve been living out of our 2012 Dodge Grand Caravan. Right now, it has 208,000 miles on it, the engine works but the side door is broken, and the trunk doesn't work as of yesterday night, but it still gets the job done and we’re grateful this van has kept us safe and can haul all of our gear! On Wednesday September 25th, 2024 we loaded up all of our gear and left Indiana (as our mid-west tour had just concluded) and we were super excited to head to Charlotte, North Carolina to start a Artist Residency which would give us time and space to record new music and prepare for our upcoming Christmas tour, kicking off right after Thanksgiving at The Morris in our hometown of South Bend, Indiana. After we left Indiana we had heard that a hurricane was heading for Florida, but we didn’t think much of it as we just thought it would hit Florida and then dissipate as it made its way to North Carolina. We expected that the outer bands would carry some heavy rain and winds. Honestly, we had no idea that it would be this catastrophic- growing up in Indiana we had no clue that Helene could maintain such power and travel 800 miles and that the eye of the storm could hit Asheville! Now, here’s an important detail to note: as we got closer to Asheville, just 32 minutes away, the rain started pouring down so hard that we could barely see out of our windshield so we turned our wipers on full speed, and then within two minutes we heard a super loud bang on our windshield. To our shock, the passenger-side windshield was completely gone, and the driver’s side windshield wiper had buckled leaving three inches of space to see out of as the rain was pouring down. To this day we’re still not 100% sure what exactly happened to cause that windshield wiper incident, and right now as of October 6th we’re still without a passenger-side windshield wiper as the mechanic shops are booked for another week. Once we arrived in Asheville around 3:21 AM on Thursday, we spent the night, and woke up to heavy rain, we called some local shops to see if they might be able to fix the passenger side wiper on our van. Then after talking with them we quickly realized after looking at it more closely the passenger-side wiper mechanism was extremely damaged and completely shoved under the hood and off the track, so the local mechanic's couldn't get us in quick enough to order the new part and fix it. Since we couldn’t get the passenger side wiper fixed on Thursday September 26th, we decided to wait it out, so we booked another night at the hotel and we planned to leave Asheville with a bunk passenger wiper once the rain has stopped on Friday as the many weather stations had reported that by noon on Friday the rain would subside. So we thought it would be safe to travel the rest of the way to Charlotte on Friday after the rain stopped as the drivers side windshield wiper was the only one working. We hope this gives a bit more context as to why we were in Asheville and the issues that kept us there. Of course we have been feeling all of the emotions and have learned a ton from this experience and will share another video about that with you all soon. In the mean time, thank you for all your love, light and support! We really appreciate you being part of this wild journey and above all we deeply appreciate your prayers and donations for all the people and communities left in the catastrophic wake of Helene.🙏 Please consider supporting the following worthy organizations, ❤ BeLoved Asheville Venmo: venmo.com/BeLoved-Asheville Old Europe (who’s been providing free food and water to the community since September 27th, 2024) PayPal: @DangHeleneHelpOE And also charitable organizations like Samaritan’s Purse and local churches.

Wow. And right now, St. Pete Florida is in the 'cone' for Hurricane Milton. I live in St. Pete. Spending the morning calling around to find special needs shelters close by. I use a walker and my husband is very weak from illness. Keep those prayers coming.
You literally just passed the DQ by my house we have been ten days without power this has been a nightmare eating canned food but we are alive, i'm so glad you are ok Thank you for sharing what happened to us.
I am so sorry to read what you wrote 😢 and hoping you and all your family is safe. All Americans are worried about you all and feel hopeless, unable to do anything. All we can do is see videos on youtube or Tiktok that show how semi trucks and people are going to NC to help. That's are only cheer and happiness behind this screen ❤. I pray you all have food and shelter big hug from Texas to you all!
Thank you I live in Asheville and haven't left my house except to get water. One week +, and we have power could be a month with no water. But our home is safe, we are safe Lots of our neighbors have left. But we have lots of help from all over the country. Thank you everyone ❤. Thank God we live in the USA
For every one like You that is safe there's 2 doing without that ISN'T getting lot's of help... FEMA has no $$$ to give cause the O'Biden/Harris administration sent it all to Ukraine to protect the Deep States assets there...
That little shop giving away food and water just brought tears to my eyes. Mr. Rogers told us to look for the helpers during scary times. You’re doing it, Old Europe
I have never felt so helpless in my life. My son lives in Asheville, and has decided to stay to help his work place cleanup, which was flooded. He has been without water and electricity for 10 days. But he said there are many others worse off than he is. I live in Wisconsin and feel like I am a million miles away. Everyone is doing all they can to help people, Yes, they are all heroes. Keep all that have been affected by this disaster in your thoughts and prayers.
If you think you feel helpless now wait'll KKKamala steals the election. You'll be paying the highest taxes ever and you'll never see a penny of help whenever a hurricane hits.
In the beginning of the video Jillian says "a little bit of rain and a little bit of wind" Wrong... Ahead of time the NWS. etc were banging the table about how dangerous the situation was going to get.
It’s so crazy to me that the small businesses are the ones to be heros and provide food and water whenever gas and oil companies still charge the same, if not more, for their essential product. They make billions of profit a year without a disaster.
Yes, the billionaires are NOT for the people!! THEY are actually the ones who have nefarious agendas for ALL of US; Depopulation, Full Control over everyone and everything and the biggest wealth transfer ever in history=United Nations Agenda 21/2030 is a REAL thing!!!
Our small business really doesn’t have it to give but we still are as best we can, buying breakfast for the volunteers, repairing a floor for a Christian donation organization that sustained flood damage, stuff like that. Wish we could do more.
I live in a suburb of Charlotte. Every single business is collecting items to send west and/or fundraising. Restaurants, mom & pop shops, small town offices, etc. We The People have come together w/out hesitation to help those in need. The mountain towns are our escape from the big cities. I can't begin to imagine what our neighbors are going through. I just hope they know we are here to help, for the long haul. ❤
@@deebee.14 absolutely not. They've asked people to contact orgs that are assisting to find out specifically what's needed and where. We can't have unnecessary traffic and people around here right now and a lot of people are coming and driving around just looking at the damage which holds up local traffic and emergency/restoration vehicles. Not to mention how many of our roads are unstable or broken.
@@dabeastman20 Are you of a certain political persuasion? Your 'handle' suggests you may be just a narcissistic know it all. You can't label everything conspiracy. You may just be swayed by YOUR News channel... Which I can guess which of those that daily use the phrase 'conspiracy theory'. No one knows one way or another except those who are there & In this country, people are allowed to ask questions without needing judgment or negative retaliation. By asking questions, they are seeking correct information. BTW beasty, "y'all" has an apostrophe in it...
You guys are lucky you were able to stay in the safer side of town. I live in Fairview which is south east Asheville. My area including Gerton, Bat Cave, Chimney Rock, Lake Lure, as well as swannanoa and Black mountain has been devastated. It’s hard to believe this even happened here. Terrible mudslides and floods killed a lot of people and destroyed roads and forests. I was without power, water, and cell for 2 weeks. Many people I know are still out of power and water. But as you mentioned in the beginning of your video, this tragedy has brought us all back together….dissolving the differences that have created terrible separation in our country. I feel a great paradox of emotions from grief to heart opening beauty. I’m an herbalist so I’m serving my community by giving away formulas for stress, depression, anxiety, and grief. Many people are stepping up to help one another. Glad yall made it out of here safely. Thanks for sharing your experience. I was cut off from what happened in other areas so I am relieved to see downtown at least still stands.
I know these two people who made the video. I’m a massage therapist in Vegas and Jillian and her husband visit their brother here. Anyway I like to say thank you for helping with your herbs. Y’all are going to need it. It’s horrific what has happened there. My grandparents lived in Hendersonville. They’ve done passed away several years ago but that area is Gods country! God speed stay safe and god bless you for helping out.
A survivor of Ian, I am currently awaiting Milton , from ft Myers. We are in evacuation zone A , but we're not able to get out. I am a single mother and pray my daughter sleeps peacefully though it. Please pray for us , as we are praying for you. There is real power in unity and prayer. Take care everyone.
Honey, please tell me you have sandbags/filled up tubs of water/ have an axe in case you have to chop your way out of your home This is a very very serious storm and you need to be absolutely prepared if you can’t get out
I pray yaw will be safe. Please let us know on here, how yaw fare thru the storm. Please be safe !! Sending much love and prayers from North Carolina. ❤
Still without power or water in north Asheville. Feeding my neighborhood nightly. started at 10 people which quickly grew to 100. Minimal sleep. Everyday’s a struggle, but seeing community come together has been incredible. Have cried more in a week (or whatever day it is time is now irrelevant) than I have in my life. Just got back internet to see this. Phew okay, let’s get back to it. 💔
@@Ketowski Well I don't know, people in the midst of it stuck in the mountains with no help, as stated by people lucky enough to have internet access. Channel after channel reporting FEMA intercepting help to people stuck with no food and water. Is FEMA not an org that is part of the gov't? Why are civilians being refused access to help others that can't be reached? Why is there no news crews? Military aid,.FEMA doing what they were formed to do, help people in crisis. Why is Elon Musk being refused drop offs of Star links so people can communicate and get help. Why do we not see choppers other then private ones trying to rescue and deliver necessary live saving goods to save lives and being intercepted by govt agencies??? There are military who have equipment and are trained to build temporary roads and run heat sensitive drones to find people in the mountains that they can drop off whatever is needed to stay alive...why is none of this being used? Where do you get your information, just wondering, because your area may be getting help, some places are...but those who have been losing family members and are still stuck with no food and water are not getting help from FEMA , which is dictated by the government.
Glad you guys made it out safely. My daughter and I went to Asheville 2 days ago to volunteer and to bring donations. Honestly, we came to encourage others but we left feeling encouraged. The resiliency of the people is truly beautiful. So many Christians stepped in to help!! God's people showed up big time!
Coming from an experienced off-roader…. Don’t “go go go go” through water unless you want to push water up into the intake making a plow effect. Go slow and steady.
I was really scared with the "go go go go go." I tried it once with my first vehicle in 2002 as an inexperienced car owner and paid a very steep price for my naivety.
Me too. I bawl everytime I watch these videos of devastation and tragedy in NC. I feel I need to, I need to be humbled, thankful to be safe, awake and aware of what's happening to our world and I have a feeling it's just going to get worse. This is an early video. I've been seeing how the government is stopping any aid whatsoever. It's appalling and heartbreaking.
I'm down in Mississippi and we've been through hurricanes before, Katrina and others, trees down and no power for weeks but Helena has devastated whole towns. So sad for everyone. 😢
Not our government though,they just want illegal foreigners coming and giving them all our resources including housing in four and five star hotels,giving them food stamps with thousands of dollars on their EBT cards. I see the illegal immigrants getting all kinds of food at the checkout line pay with their EBT cards, while the American families are behind them, buying beans and rice and having a little. The American children are basically starving,while the illegals are getting steaks and steaks. It’s unbelievable to me to see our American children starving while the illegal immigrants get all our money that we pay taxes into. American families are starving, homeless, living on the streets, while all these illegals get everything. I see it daily in the checkout lines, and on the streets. We need help.
Damn. The way the water kept rising, it's like Titanic, but it's not a ship, it's an entire city. Hope you guys are safe. Thank you for the video. Prayers to everyone who has been affected.
Much Love My Japanese Friend , I'm Not there in the Flood area but I Live in Texas and I just want to tell u that I SINCERELY APPRECIATE your concern For the people going through this catastrophe ! It warms my heart that even people from across the World can Recognize Suffering and Chaos and are able to send their /ove and Prayers thanks to Social Media! May GOD Bless You and Protect You My Good Hearted Friend ! Much Love From Texas 🤠♥️🫂
@@elouise5593 u know what , I didnt even bother to look at the name and the thought of the person not being Japanese didnt cross my mind either. Although, I did find it odd I didnt have to Hit Translate 🤔. Your Attention to detail is Top Notch or I'm just a dumb a$$ 🤦
@@bxgonzalez-vk6vi He said “from Japan,” didn’t say he’s Japanese. But why debunk a well wisher? Maybe it’s someone living and working there. Judge not.
Thank yourselves or your homebuilder. Depending on where you were. If you ran you saved yourself, if you stayed home and got hit by water your builder saved you. And if you didn't get hit at all, the wind saved you
It is the response of Human Being. To cooperate and support Life around us IS the Natural state of the Cosmos. It isn't rare that humans respond in a cooperative way when tragedy strikes. In THAT situation, the politics and hatred and name calling and the religious rhetoric and judgements fall away. As it COULD BE if each person imagined, fully, the need we have for each other. How important it is the Honor and Respect one another , IN SPITE of differences in our minds. Blessings to All 🙏
@@gregj831 on site with boots on the ground. They are having a hard time of it. Roads and bridges are impassable, aviation fuel low everywhere. The fed is giving governors all they need. The governors of all the affected states are stopping their life-saving work to go do interviews to dispel the kind of fake information you are trying to push. Your rhetoric is taking precious resources away from the lifesaving actions they are trying to perform. Shame.
I’m living off canned food and no estimate on when we get water back but I’m lucky to be safe and able to sit here and watch this. We have a strong community here in Asheville and the surrounding area ❤
My thoughts and prayers are with you and all who've been affected. My heart is just breaking for you all. Sending you much love, strength and protection from Canada. xxx
Damn bro still aren’t gettin assisted by our government wtf are they doing about this!!? All im seeing are people left to figure shit out on their own this is heartbreaking man prayers to everyone who’s still dealing with this on my soul our country really pisses me off sometimes
My heart goes out to everyone in Ashville. I live in Charlotte and see the devastating aftermath of Helene. Our Walmarts have been collecting donations. Today saw a truck full of generators,blankets,cases of water. Prayers for you all.
This is the part that infuriates me… Walmarts collecting donations, allowing people to spend the money on supplies for the people WALMART MADE OUT LIKE A BANDIT DURING COVID… why aren’t they donating supplies that are needed in these communities? Many of the smaller ones are centered around the Walmart in their communities. Proof they are part of the problem, and not solutions.
tipsybass7060. Yeah, Walmart! People, come in here, spend your money here, and we’ll send our paid for products to the flooded areas!!!! Wow, brilliant!! One of the BIG CORPS that set up shop strategically ALL OVER the USA, just outside of a big group of small towns. Unfortunately most all of the American people WENT SHOPPING there, to then “save a buck”…and so put ALL THEIR LOCAL TOWN BUSINESSES FN “OUT OF BUSINESS “!!! NOW these massive operations OWNED BY MEN who also OWN ALL of the massive shipping companies shipping EVERYTHING moving around the WORLD, have ALL AMERICANS BY THE GONADS!!! AND recently, and with already record profits, they DOUBLE, TRIPLE their prices ON EVERYTHING needed by THE PEON PEOPLE!!!! FUGGEN CORPORATE GREED!!! THEY are sucking the wealth right out of the AMERICAN PEOPLE!!! IMAGINE the money going to THESE MEN, and out of the American people!!! AND MORE but I must stop there….Right, INFURIATING!!
Screw Walmart! They can afford to send millions in supplies themselves and hire helicopters and use drones to drop it off. Owners are BILLIONAIRES! Don’r praise a company that is greedily collecting more off the average Joe or poor who already give them their money. I would never donate to a Walmart or places like that. The nerve….
So far this year, the United States has given: $24,400,000,000 to Ukraine. $11,300,000,000 to Israel. - $1,950,000,000 to Ethiopia. $1,600,000,000 to Jordan. $1,400,000,000 to Egypt. $1,100,000,000 to Afghanistan. - $1,100,000,000 to Somalia. $1,000,000,000 to Yemen. $987,000,000 to Congo. $896,000,000 to Syria. $9,000 per illegal immigrant that has entered the U.S. And Americans who have lost everything to Hurricane Helene will be getting $750, courtesy of FEMA.
Because they are heavily liberal. They overshot with the clould seeding fr weeks from air and sky just like the massive flood in Dubia using clold seeding . Praying for all the states affected by these monsters
Having lived in North Carolina for 14 years, spending much time in the Asheville area, all of this breaks my heart to the very core. But I know how strong the people of North Carolina are and how resilient they have proven to be over and over again. May God bless them in their rebuilding and regaining their strength from the loss of so many and so much.
The ONE positive of this is seeing human connection again. I felt like this video was taken 20 years ago. We’re all so distracted by our phones and ignore each other now. Nice to see it seem like old times even if it is because of a tragedy. ❤
I 3rd that Amen. We're states away but got hit by 80mph sustained winds after Beryl and my whole county lost power for 4 days. It sucked because it was middle of summer and you can't really acclimate to no AC that fast, but it was the most peaceful time I've had since camping years ago.
Yep. Everyone is equal. No color. No politics. No b.s. Real people. Helping one another, the way God intended us to be. Sad it takes a terrible tragedy and cost to get to see us getting it so right for one another. That's America ! ❤ 🙏🏻
This should be required viewing for every American. What an eye opener!! Many different kinds of emergencies could happen that could set any of us back like this. It reminded me to refresh our water supply for emergencies and add at least five more gallons to it and to stop running my gas tank so low....and to have, at least, SOME cash at home.
That is correct, most of us don't make enough money to live completely off the grid. That requires a crap load of solar panels and batteries but it can be done. Storage tanks gasoline, diesel and propane. A bobcat with a few attachments etc.
@@sharronward1234 Cooking oil also. Save it in the jugs it came in. It's great for fires and filtered you can even run vehicles on it if you do it right.
I live in Mars Hill 30 minutes north of Asheville, there is complete devastation all around us, so many dead. There are still people in Yancey and Mitchell Co. that people haven't reached yet. I'm sure the same in Eastern TN. The communities are really working hard to help each other out. This will take a lifetime to rebuild❤😢.
My Neice lives in Mars Hill. She owns Wildheart Farm and Sanctuary and saves animals. I have posted her fundraising page and pray 🙏 she gets help from many people 🙏🙏🙏
Honestly they should not rebuild! That is dead people property now honor them by putting their names on cement in front of their addresses do something to honor them with their town do not rebuild. That is ridiculous. It would be another lake lure. Cause them ppl were killed ain’t reason for this they should have had help this is so messed up 😢😢😢😢 on all levels man
What an amazing video. I'm a touring Guitarist, went through some affected areas, headed back to Florida, this was just such an informative video without the news reporter bullshit! Well done guys! Now I'm cleaning up after Milton.
A small place up Rt. 26 West called “Little Creek Cafe” did the same for motorists who were trapped and trying to get out, many with no gas, in the middle of nowhere. Men who were trapped volunteered to cook and the food was served with a smile. Great place to be stuck.
I’ve never not wanted a video to end so bad… hopefully you have more footage for another great video. Thank you for showing me that good people still come together in times of distress.
Shew! All I can do is cry. Between the terrifying situation and the willingness of people to be kind. Please carry that kindness for the rest of our journey. Thank you for ripping my soul out of a comfort zone. Changing lives Helene Sure brought the rage. Very impactful documentation.
@@Boomage1979dont talk about volunteers until all people show up to help...yeah, doesn't sound as good does it? Don't get the hating on millionaires. It's not like every single person isn't secretly wanting to be one. Green eyed monster. Thankful for ALL who donated, showed up, prayed. The news will move on, just like they did Lahaina, Maui. Lots of people will forget. Please don't forget. This will take months, in the winter, to recover from.
My refrigerator broke yesterday. It just died..and I just couldn't get upset. I just kept thinking of all the trials before all those devastated by this hurricane. Perspective changes when you look beyond yourself. We are praying for everyone affected to receive strength, divine help, needs met, and know you are loved.
Your prayers are very much needed and appreciated from the NC blue ridge mtns to the foothills and on through into TN where many lost everything as well❤
THIS is all a lie!! They are traitors to the American people! The hurricanes are man-made and the Democrats are the ones making them!! What they dont show you is nasa globalist traitors controlled by the Democrats are dumping tons of dry ice into the atmosphere to cloud seed the storm with planes. Then they use HAARP technology to move the storm into areas with high density of trump supporters. Its how democrats have been cheating to win elections and to trick people into beleiving the global warming hoax for years now... TRUMP 2024, for God and Country! ✝️⛪🙏
I live in a small town south of Asheville, the town of Flat Rock. We were also hit by this hurricane and had horrific damage to our communities. But the things I have seen with the communities sticking together and helping one another brings me to tears! Even though I lost a lot and had damage to my own home and lost a lot we had a team of trucks taking supplies to Asheville and Swannanoa and the damage in Swannanoa is so heartbreaking! Please everyone spread word WNC, East Tennessee we need help from our fellow Americans! Much love to all I am happy to still be here through all of this disaster.
What more could they need...JOKE BIden and Kamal gave everyone $750???? This better make everybody think about who you vote for soon because it is obvious that the DEMOCRATS in power dont care about any of us
@@ShuhannazyYes. However, with emergency " Purple Code ORDERED from the North Carolina Governor directly to the Asheville hotels, makes The Exception here. We were also in a hotel near downtown Asheville. The EXTREME DANGER that the hotel owners put us in was in DIRECT DISOBEDIENCE of the State of Emergency Purple Code Orders. The hotel owners were ordered to house their patrons, to " Shelter In Place", and to Open their doors as a Shelter.
Thank you for letting everyone know, I had not seen any perspective from the middle of the city but lots of updates from rural regions. TH-camrs are really bringing the news to people!
When something like this happens you realize what you thought was your whole world isn't. You come out with a very different perspective in life. Some learn from it. Others let it deviate them
This was documented and recorded very well. Like watching a movie that sadly is real life 😢 So glad you all made it out safely. Prayers to the Asheville families. 🙏🏾
Only complaint, that horrible screeching background “music”, but just nails on a chalkboard. Almost quit watching because of that, but very in tune to wanting to see and hear your experience. Thank you; my ears managed to stick it out! 😮😅
i work at Southwire, and we are doing the best we can to produce the various bare overhead cable needed to get power back to all the affected communities. Storm orders are a top priority. Be patient. we are doing the best we can! ***Edit*** I work in a production facility that makes the cable that will be replaced...Im not on the battlefield***
I'm not in the area, Thomasville Alabama here but just want to say thank you for the work you are doing. We couldn't survive without linemen. Thank you thank you thank you.
Watching this from Texas😢 My prayers to everyone affected by Helene, especially the mountain people, hope we hear from/about them soon. Thank you for sharing/informing.
One thing I notice you don't see flat screen TV floatin down the street like you did in New Orleans and people helping each other instead of looting each other!
It's crazy, there's entire towns and roads completely cut off up above my house. We saw some BIG helicopters, like apaches or something, going back and forth all night last night. I think they are getting those people out finally.
The small mountain towns of western NC and eastern TN were hit very badly, to the point where not just homes were washed away, but also the land underneath them. The death toll is underreported in the MSM. Lots of reports of so many dead bodies that the stench is a problem. Adding up the various local reports I've seen, and doing some extrapolating for the areas that haven't been able to report, it will turn out to be thousands, not hundreds. Lots of private rescuers jumped in early, in one place, almost 40 privately owned helicopters showed up and got to work around day 2 or 3, and were doing the Lord's work until various units of government shut them down. Government people don't like it when they're not in charge. Booty-jug shut down the airspace completely over the area, before any National Guard were deployed, and NC governor was doing nothing. FEMA was late to arrive, but quick to shut things down. Lots of truckers reporting that they were told to turn around and take their loads of supplies back. Apparently the optics coming out of the freedom social media got bad, and the government loosened up somewhat. I found X the best place to get info.
@@grizzlygrizzle The problem is that there's no cell phone service, so people can't contact their friends and family to confirm if they're safe. As things move forward, and more is known, the death toll will probably rise. But I saw a video that a guy made in NC where he went to one of the communities where people said the stench of bodies was a problem. He found a dead horse and that was it. No stench. Local people confirmed that then stories weren't true.
I'm not sure this couple deserves thanks. With all due respect how do you plan a trip that goes directly through a hurricane? All they did was cause more congestion in the disaster area. People need to humble themselves. If the authorities requested for residents to leave the area. I'm pretty sure they didn't want tourists in the area. I'm not trying to be overly harsh this whole video just seems incredibly irresponsible.
It needs to be documented by good filmmakers who are showing the on the ground events. They were coming to stay and had no idea about hurricanes. This shows how unprepared most people are in the US when it comes to natural disasters, but it is great to see the coming together, which also happens. Regardless of why they were there, I think this is an important piece of film. We hear about how bad it is, but being across the country and never ever having gone there, this gives some context. Thank you for filming. Obviously, stay safe.
Hey, Jillian, we met at the Mediterranean restaurant in New York City on July 25th while I was traveling in my RV. I met several people in North Carolina in June when I traveled through that state and never expected out of my new acquaintances, you would be among the ones affected by the hurricane/floods. I'm glad you are now safe. Prayers continue for all.
Dearest Lauryl! It is so wonderful hearing from you. I loved our NYC dinner hang on July 25th. Thank you for following along and for your loving words. I remember you saying that you just traveled through NC... and now looking back I am so happy that your safe as well because you never know with the RV life how long you will be in one location for. I will be praying for your friends affected by the hurricane and floods as well. Thank you for your love, light and prayers. I deeply appreciate you and your thoughtfulness. You're a gem. I look forward to our paths crossing again one day soon. Stay safe out there with your precious pup 🐶 Big Love & Shine On - Jillian
Thank you very much for recording your experience. Y’all’s composure is admirable. Seeing these first person experiences is leaps and bounds more valuable than a politician handing out water bottles. Bringing the information to interested citizens. I am from VA/TN & things like this help validate the pain and grief of everyone there in these videos. Other people witness their hardship. I’m devastated for these people and the unnatural weather events that will continue to kill. We are all subject to these events wether you like it or not.
Thank you for your gripping account of this horrible event. You clearly depicted how in an unexpected emergency situation, literally every step and moment of your day is in survival mode! So glad you made it out safely! Thanks again!
Yea no wifi, clearly Survival mode. 😮 People in florida. this is a normal thing for us. No power. No water. Remember Ivan? 2 weeks No electricity. People don't even know what real survival mode is. They think not having internet is roughing it.
@@2332Stephen Not being able to flush a toilet, water running out, communications cut off. Not knowing when the situation is going to improve. People's houses were floating down rivers, man.
@@2332Stephen lol - "you think your disaster is bad? MY state is a disaster all the time!" is there anything about Florida that isn't repugnant (yourself included)?
This is by far the most informational video about the situation in North Carolina at least for that particular part. Thanks for sharing it and thank God you two are okay.
One of the most important parts of surviving was not talked about, but instead shown to us. You kept calm. No doubt you had big worries and fear, but you stayed calm, made a plan, and gathered information in order to get out of the area. That is a huge factor in surviving the aftermath of widespread destruction.
I live in Haywood 30 minutes from Asheville we were hit too and many of the surrounding counties also Tennessee was affected I have lived here my entire life so for 44 years I have never seen anything like this before. So many missing, or dead, complete homes and towns just gone. I’ve never been so scared and now living with guilt that I made it and still have my home and all of my family. My heart is broken for all of us it’s impacted it’s going to be years before everything is even half way back to normal. Please pray for those still missing and for the families that have lost loved ones or everything they owned. It’s hard to even comprehend that in one night, one storm so many’s entire world fell apart 😢
Why are you living with guilt? You're now in a position to help others. That's the position I'd rather be in. If you can't physically help others, a meal or bed, a spare jacket, small things can help a lot. We're sending best wishes from across the world to all affected.
My fiancé has a sister-in-law in SC. She moved into her mom's house to wait it out and was afraid that a couple of her trees would fall on her house! Fortunately, they didn't hit her house when they did fall!
Credit for maintaining the love and caring in your relationship. So easy to lash out at one's companion when stress is as high as it was. Bless you both....
Be sure kamella is still giving $$$$$ to illegals and letting more and more in. Congratulations to all those kamella voters. We now see you don't give a damn about anyone but yourselves.
How can your heart be torn when this is God's work? Y'all really hate the Lord but swear y'all love him nobody else has the power to do this but the most high and y'all acting like it's a freak accident gtfoh God doesn't make mistakes and this was fa damn sure no mistake this was gonna happen regardless white ppl all over America have a judgement coming this is only the beginning starting with the sundown racist ass towns that were stolen in the first place fuck all of yall this is biblical and all y'all crying keep on crying cause the most high ain't done with you gentiles!!!
Well done unplanned documentary. Glad you guys made it to Charlotte safely. So many people and organizations have reached out to help everyone impacted by this unprecedented event. It will take a long time to recover, but your video made it real. Thank you.
Gosh! I live in California and I have been constantly looking for updates on our people in the horrorcane zone. My heart feels hollowed out and my prayers are overflowing. There are so many good people in our country and when we come together, there isn’t a damn thing on earth that can stop us. God bless this lot and give them hope and comfort.
Absolutely devastating. Have visited Asheville, Maggie Valley, and Hot Springs NC, and nearly every single place my family visited 4 years ago was destroyed by this... this is far worse than we are being told. Thank you for helping show what happened. Prayers to all affected.
@@tiftyme paper can have "wax" on them to repell water. But yeah, do not have it in water. You probably just store the maps in a water proof case. I mean, if you had a phone in this, it probably died or you can not charge it.
This was a fascinating, informative and moving film. Sending love & strength from the UK. Sunday morning here and I’m starting the day incredibly humbled (not sure that’s the right word but hopefully you know what I mean?) Those poor souls. I’ll never complain about English weather again, ever.
@@NurseSue425Hi Sue from England ! Hope you're all ok It's not easy living here if you're a whistleblower. Praying for you guys and people in India, Africa plus the various wars ... God bless you 🙏✝️
Asheville native here. We still don’t have running water. But we’re lucky to have power and cell service back. People are starting to go crazy. Unfortunately one person was shot by looters. had to evac to Pittsburgh just to stay safe. Be careful out there
Looters are the lowest from of human out there in situations like this. My family and I survived hurricane Isabel in the early 2000s. Our neighborhood came together for each other but looters came in to steal what little we all had left. It was horrendous and everyone was prepared to beat their butt.
You are lucky you got power back so quick. That will help a lot. Water service may be out due to damaged treatment plants and maybe clogged sanitary lines. That’s a problem but is fixable. What is not is human behavior of those that cannot wait in line for their turn and want the easy way out. Hurricane Maria Puerto Rico resident here. Hang in there; things will get better.
@@chironjopeurto rico.. Stay safe and screw Monsanto for giving yall some of the weirdest highest cancer rates of types that are usually very rare. Stay safe, live long ❤
I'm in Hendersonville, NC. Asheville is much worse off, it breaks Mt heart. Chimney Rock is obliterated. It's devastating. Everyone has been so good to one another and supportive. The response from the community has been amazing. It's just so overwhelming. So many are still without power or a way to communicate or get supplies.
I live a few hours away in e. TN and have been glued to the TV in TH-cam to see what happened to my neighbors. This is by far the most terrifying I have seen about what actually happened on the ground in Asheville as it happened. So very very well done. Thank you excellent documentary.
I just feel as if it is a miracle that you made it out of Ashville! Thank you for an eye-opening record of what you went through, and the suffering people there. God protect and comfort you all, keep you safe and bring you help! Amen!
My question to people who are praying during a disaster is do you know the gospel? I'd love to share, but don't want to push people unconcerned or confident in themselves? My true prayer is that people will be drawn to the one, true Amighty Creator. Thank you for this video. It is very informative. I will continue to pray for all the people still stranded. Please Lord, save these people!!!
@@skeletalremains3860 my question is, if "God" has an ultimate, perfect plan for everything, why pray, at all? What are you hoping to do? Change his mind? Isn't this a little arrogant?
@@WynterFyre no, friend. It is because it is an act of worship and obedience. Our purpose is to honor and glorify Him, each other, and to be good stewards over everything He has blessed us with. Why would it be arrogant to be in a loving relationship with our Creator? Maybe I misunderstood your question?
And it's sad so many are using this tragedy as a political soap box. Not everyone is trying to unite. There are still MANY selfish people turning this into an opportunity. 😢
We are so torn apart by meaningless ideologies of the elite who hate us and love watching the division they create. Media shoves it down our throats everyday relentlessly.
We were in Asheville in a hotel near the Biltmore at the same time as you were filming this. Our experiences were so similar it was as if we were watching a movie telling our own story. We took 26 south on Sunday morning and parked in a gas station in Spartanburg and waited for a gas tanker to arrive. Seeing that tanker pull into the station knowing we would be on our way back to Myrtle Beach was an amazing feeling of relief. Thanks for documenting your story.
This is why amateur (ham) radio will never go away. Just having a radio to listen to can help alot. It's not a bad idea to get your ham license and learn the emergency channels and how to properly use your radio. You could be the only person in your community who can call for help in the event of an emergency.
That's how they organized help when Puerto Rico got wiped out the year of Harvey.. it was citizens with Ham radios working with volunteers from the states that were military veterans and Puerto Rico natives
My X boyfriend's dad had a ham that he was on a lot n one Thank's Giving he was joking around saying they didn't have much food for the holiday n some people brought some food to him and at that point he had to take it otherwise he would have been shund from the ham.. His wife was so embarrassed and pissed!! This was in the 90s. BUT, people were so nice n caring, it was kinda like the first Facebook.. 😄
@@lindasharp8523 yes, because you could accidentally tie up the frequency for an aircraft. it is important to learn all you about ham radio. An easier route would be G M R S. Look into it. No test to pass and you just pay 10$ one time and can put the whole family on the license.
Thank you again for your time and video. Other TH-cam channels are reporting. You have given us a window to what's happening in real time. I'm glad you guys are safe. God bless.
Watching this isn’t easy. 🙏🏽 to everyone affected . My family is from Cuba and there’s nothing like this to spread awareness to show what’s happening there. 💔❤️🩹
I was thinking that I hadn't heard anything about how the hurricane affected Cuba or other areas around there. Fingers crossed everyone is OK out there
@@denawagner360 i’m so sorry! i guess our news has focused so much on Helene’s devastating damage in SC, GA & TN and then Milton from Wed night leaving 4 million w/o power. you’re doing the right thing by reaching out! i don’t know what resources Cuba has to assist but i definitely will be looking into what happened elsewhere. 🙏
Hurricane season happens every year. It’s been getting consistently worse every year. We have a national weather service, the Weather Channel, and a multitude of apps. I’m completely baffled that anyone living in the southern US is confused that this weather situation has happened. THIS IS ONLY THE FIRST OF MANY CUS THIS IS THE START OF HURRICANE SEASON, NOT THE END OF IT. THERE ARE TWO MORE HEADED THAT WAY.
@@PorterWood09look lady, this hurricane came up to us 100s of miles away. This was absolutely bizarre and unprecedented. So, keep your supercillious attitude to yourself.
@@BrianButterworth-s4z I'm soooo tired of these Oh, well comments. Unprecedented, is correct. It's worse than Mount St. Helens with exponentially more loss of life.
These are my people, I live right over the mtn from Asheville. This is what Americans are all about, helping their neighbors no matter what the need is. God bless all of the families struggling and I’m glad you guys made it out safe.
So glad you made it out safely. Asheville was my home for 16 yrs and I have many friends there who have been impacted by the devastation. Your video shows the reality of the devastation...grateful for you documentig this...heartbroken for everyone.
The relief in her voice when she saw Winston, isnt awesome how our pets can calm and bring relief from whatever is going on. Thanks for sharing this story! God help everyone!
This is a real Short Documentary Film, we see the beauty of humanity, we also see the fear, frustration and devastation. Pray for those who are suffering and hope they recover ASAP. Thank you for the presentation.
@@maxdu6793 don't forget that the government SQUANDERED all of our FEMA funding. So did George Bush, and so did Trump. The Government is the problem. They force us to give up half of our hard-earned income, and then block the roads and block private citizens trying to give ⛑️ aid and help.
I was the director of nursing for a new hospice inpatient facility during Katrina. I only agree to be the director after I was reassured that we would not try to evacuate patients since there were emergency generators on the roof and we would be in the 5th floor. We had enough fuel for 72 hrs, so when we lost power, the clock started ticking. When we found out we were not going to get more fuel because it was being taken by FEMA and it became obvious that New Orleans would be shut down for months, getting the patients out became the priority. It is a long story , everything that happened, but we were blessed in so many ways. I can remember it like it was yesterday. Watching yall discuss the realization of the dire situation that was impending and the need to get out, I know how you feel. Mobility Impaired vans arrived from the sheriff’s office from a town about 90 miles away and we were escorted to the Mississippi River bridge by National Guard. We were told to follow close, keep our windows closed, eyes straight ahead, do not talk to anyone, and definitely do not stop. We witnessed the aftermath of massive looting at a WalMart on the way-- empty TV boxes all over the parking lot, NOT stuff people needed to survive. Now the National Guard was there and barricaded the doors. Every pharmacy in the area had been looted. Our last night we were there, we could hear gunfire and glass breaking. The devastation was NO WHERE NEAR what has happened in North Carolina, but the violence was rising. The most haunting memory for me was as we got to the top of the on-ramp for the bridge, there was an elderly couple with 2 pet carriers and whatever else they had been able to escape the rising water with. They were yelling at our caravan “WHY WON’T ANY IF YOU STOP AND HELP US!” On the 10th anniversary of Katrina I was interviewed by the local newspaper. I have always said if I had it to do over again, would I do it. Absolutely, hospice patients are on the bottom of the priority list for evacuation, we were prepared to have to be there for a month- but with no fuel and rising safety concerns we had to get out ASAP. Like I said earlier, it is a long story. A lot was learned from Katrina. Now there are plans for evacuation of EVERYONE. But the devastation from Helene I have seen in all the TH-cam videos is gut wrenching. Who would have EVER thought that there would be this much destruction!!! Who could have ever imagined -- speechless.
Thank you for your dedication for those hospice patients. I'm sure their families appreciated it. Katrina was so catastrophic. I've watched a documentary about Katrina babies. It was fascinating, yet heart-wrenching. Also, you should write a book. Seriously. You're a wonderful storyteller. Thank you for sharing!❤
When the reports of Helene & Milton started coming in it gave me Katrina vibes. Especially the mandatory evac zones from Florida, no gas & highway's jammed. My heart sank as I watched it unfold from Australia. I know it may sound cruel, but if ppl have lost their home, why not move somewhere safer to avoid this again in the future. Climate change has made weather unpredictable & so much more severe. I wouldn't rebuild somewhere that it's only a matter of time it happens again. Sending prayers to all severely affected
@@KatB79 My house was the only one on the block that did not flood, but lost part of the roof and the outside staircase was blown down with a wall and tree (it was a 2-story duplex, daughter’s family lived up, I lived down). With only access to upstairs gone and the water damage, I gave the house to my 19 yr old son- which he gutted and rebuilt- and I got a house out of the Bowl of the New Orleans area for the rest of us. We thought we were safe from ever flooding again, but in 2016, there was a massive flood. A “river” with a riverbed that was 30 ft across and 12ft high never had any more than a few inches in it. You could walk across it and not even get your ankles wet. But even though we were the length of 2 and 1/2 football fields away from it, it made it to my house. My daughter had planned to build a house closer to the “river”, thankfully they DID NOT because she would have had 8 ft of water-- I was “blessed “ with only 18 inches. I think that anywhere it rains it can possibly flood- or at least some kind of regional disaster. Gotta be prepared for anything- we even had a BLIZZARD in 2008- in Southern Louisiana!!!
Maybe you edit really well but i was happy to see how well you 2 treated each other!! We have to keep our heads level in these situations!!! Chaos is what leads to anger and fear and ultimately fighting. Great video guys!!
I appreciate how she kept checking in with him while he was driving in stressful conditions, just a simple, “how are you doing? You still okay?” is so important, but, unfortunately, too many people don’t practice the small kindnesses enough. Always glad to overhear those little moments between couples.☺️
This was so well done. We felt what you were feeling and that's not always easy to convey! So happy you stayed safe. Thank you for documenting your account and may God Bless you in your journeys.
The beautiful scene was when everyone was standing outside, smiling, sharing info & checking on each other. I love my state & how in a time like this everyone came together.
Oh my goodness thank you for documenting this. I could not imagine being in that situation absolutely terrifying. Unreal to think this happened in the mountains, nature truly can be unpredictable.
Thank you for this documentary you ended up shooting. I gathered more info from you than I’ve been able to from professional news sources. I’m glad you’re safe. As a former resident of NC, my heart goes out to everyone affected by this disaster. ❤
Why do you think msm isn't covering any of this? Why do you think.qe have billions for illegal immigrants, foriegn wars...but NOTHING for victims here in NC...children tied to.trees to not be swept away by flood waters......while they fund the policing of civilian rescue attempts and support.... Bet you're still gonna vote for Montell Williams side chick....
My life has felt like a constant hurricane. Tons of trauma. I’m a recovering drug addict who has lived my whole life in Florida. Ironically, the only time I feel at peace is when I’m in a hurricane. It’s almost like Florida was created to take the damage that hurricanes create. It’s almost like I was created to take the damage that others create. I will never give up. I found a little peace in helping others(my channel). I hope if someone reads this it helps them. If anyone needs to talk, I’ll always be here to listen. You two are the types of people who keep me positive. You make good music, you’re helpful, and you’re living your dream. I’m so glad you’re safe. Spread Love Everyone.
Your comment touched my heart. I, too am a person that learned to live my life in chaos and when I had peace in my life it was uncomfortable. Through years of therapy, I am finally learning to enjoy moments of peace. I hope you can find that one day. Till then, embrace the madness and keep spreading joy.
I'm an addict in recovery, over 2 years clean myself, even after I got clean my life still felt like a constant storm, it wasn't until I found Jesus and now live for God that I found peace I'd never had before. I never thought I'd be a follower of Jesus Christ, but it's the best thing that's happened to me and I love my God today, He's the God of all of us, nobody is too bad or too far gone for Him.
i relate to your comment, I've had so much trauma, and still going through some of it watching a family member who is struggling with addiction currently and it's just very hard. I could use a friend who can relate. lol I'm glad you're in recovery!
This is absolutely awful. TY for sharing. There is absolutely no reason that our military couldn’t have acted immediately bringing food water and supplies and rescuing people. It’s disgraceful. Glad you guys are okay.
I have never seen so much devastation in my entire life and so little response by most news channels world wide, who should all hold their heads in shame.
Kinda like that lynching in Henderson NORTH CAROLINA that isn’t getting national attention! Happened 3 weeks ago North Carolina should be ashamed! Maybe if they brought those guys to justice that hurricane would not have been as devastating! Hurricane hit all slave states! Hmmmmm
I'm so heartbroken for everyone in Asheville. I know that they have many years ahead of them to rebuild homes, businesses, lives. The destruction that Helene has done is unbelievable.
A huge thank you to everyone who has watched our short film, left positive comments, and helped those affected by Helene's devastation from Florida to North Carolina. We’re truly humbled by your love and support, and we wanted to be sure to share a bit more about the journey that led us to pass through Asheville when we did.
So first and foremost, we are full-time touring musicians and documentarians, since we’re always on the road, you can find us with a camera in our hands documenting everything just like we would do on any other day. (this is how we got the footage you saw in the film)
Since 2018, we’ve been living out of our 2012 Dodge Grand Caravan. Right now, it has 208,000 miles on it, the engine works but the side door is broken, and the trunk doesn't work as of yesterday night, but it still gets the job done and we’re grateful this van has kept us safe and can haul all of our gear!
On Wednesday September 25th, 2024 we loaded up all of our gear and left Indiana (as our mid-west tour had just concluded) and we were super excited to head to Charlotte, North Carolina to start a Artist Residency which would give us time and space to record new music and prepare for our upcoming Christmas tour, kicking off right after Thanksgiving at The Morris in our hometown of South Bend, Indiana.
After we left Indiana we had heard that a hurricane was heading for Florida, but we didn’t think much of it as we just thought it would hit Florida and then dissipate as it made its way to North Carolina. We expected that the outer bands would carry some heavy rain and winds. Honestly, we had no idea that it would be this catastrophic- growing up in Indiana we had no clue that Helene could maintain such power and travel 800 miles and that the eye of the storm could hit Asheville!
Now, here’s an important detail to note: as we got closer to Asheville, just 32 minutes away, the rain started pouring down so hard that we could barely see out of our windshield so we turned our wipers on full speed, and then within two minutes we heard a super loud bang on our windshield. To our shock, the passenger-side windshield was completely gone, and the driver’s side windshield wiper had buckled leaving three inches of space to see out of as the rain was pouring down. To this day we’re still not 100% sure what exactly happened to cause that windshield wiper incident, and right now as of October 6th we’re still without a passenger-side windshield wiper as the mechanic shops are booked for another week.
Once we arrived in Asheville around 3:21 AM on Thursday, we spent the night, and woke up to heavy rain, we called some local shops to see if they might be able to fix the passenger side wiper on our van. Then after talking with them we quickly realized after looking at it more closely the passenger-side wiper mechanism was extremely damaged and completely shoved under the hood and off the track, so the local mechanic's couldn't get us in quick enough to order the new part and fix it.
Since we couldn’t get the passenger side wiper fixed on Thursday September 26th, we decided to wait it out, so we booked another night at the hotel and we planned to leave Asheville with a bunk passenger wiper once the rain has stopped on Friday as the many weather stations had reported that by noon on Friday the rain would subside.
So we thought it would be safe to travel the rest of the way to Charlotte on Friday after the rain stopped as the drivers side windshield wiper was the only one working.
We hope this gives a bit more context as to why we were in Asheville and the issues that kept us there. Of course we have been feeling all of the emotions and have learned a ton from this experience and will share another video about that with you all soon.
In the mean time, thank you for all your love, light and support! We really appreciate you being part of this wild journey and above all we deeply appreciate your prayers and donations for all the people and communities left in the catastrophic wake of Helene.🙏

I am so sorry to read what you wrote 😢 and hoping you and all your family is safe. All Americans are worried about you all and feel hopeless, unable to do anything.

Huh?
Who do you have help from???
Fema ?
For every one like You that is safe there's 2 doing without that ISN'T getting lot's of help... FEMA has no $$$ to give cause the O'Biden/Harris administration sent it all to Ukraine to protect the Deep States assets there...
@@ducksinarowpatienceWouldn't surprise me if this is a Fake Account they put up to propagandize with...
That little shop giving away food and water just brought tears to my eyes. Mr. Rogers told us to look for the helpers during scary times. You’re doing it, Old Europe
I have never felt so helpless in my life. My son lives in Asheville, and has decided to stay to help his work place cleanup, which was flooded. He has been without water and electricity for 10 days. But he said there are many others worse off than he is. I live in Wisconsin and feel like I am a million miles away. Everyone is doing all they can to help people, Yes, they are all heroes. Keep all that have been affected by this disaster in your thoughts and prayers.
The helplessness is the WORST. If you could, you would move heaven and earth to be there with him to help, but it isn't possible.
Blessings and prayers for you and your son. 🙏🏻❤️
Prayers for your son❤
If you think you feel helpless now wait'll KKKamala steals the election. You'll be paying the highest taxes ever and you'll never see a penny of help whenever a hurricane hits.
In the beginning of the video Jillian says "a little bit of rain and a little bit of wind" Wrong... Ahead of time the NWS. etc were banging the table about how dangerous the situation was going to get.
It’s so crazy to me that the small businesses are the ones to be heros and provide food and water whenever gas and oil companies still charge the same, if not more, for their essential product. They make billions of profit a year without a disaster.
One hindrance was people didn’t have cash and no electricity.
Yes, the billionaires are NOT for the people!! THEY are actually the ones who have nefarious agendas for ALL of US; Depopulation, Full Control over everyone and everything and the biggest wealth transfer ever in history=United Nations Agenda 21/2030 is a REAL thing!!!
Disasters make lots rich
Mom and Pop businesses ARE the communities they live in.
Our small business really doesn’t have it to give but we still are as best we can, buying breakfast for the volunteers, repairing a floor for a Christian donation organization that sustained flood damage, stuff like that. Wish we could do more.
I live in a suburb of Charlotte. Every single business is collecting items to send west and/or fundraising. Restaurants, mom & pop shops, small town offices, etc. We The People have come together w/out hesitation to help those in need. The mountain towns are our escape from the big cities. I can't begin to imagine what our neighbors are going through. I just hope they know we are here to help, for the long haul. ❤
If heard, officials have stopped the general public from helping with product to anyone who’s been affected. Is this true?
@@deebee.14 absolutely not. They've asked people to contact orgs that are assisting to find out specifically what's needed and where. We can't have unnecessary traffic and people around here right now and a lot of people are coming and driving around just looking at the damage which holds up local traffic and emergency/restoration vehicles. Not to mention how many of our roads are unstable or broken.
@@tjdwyer3 thank you for your help. We are grieving, and grateful.
@@deebee.14 where do yall get these conspiracies from? I'm actually curious. Is it a website, newspaper, radio station?
@@dabeastman20 Are you of a certain political persuasion? Your 'handle' suggests you may be just a narcissistic know it all. You can't label everything conspiracy. You may just be swayed by YOUR News channel... Which I can guess which of those that daily use the phrase 'conspiracy theory'.
No one knows one way or another except those who are there & In this country, people are allowed to ask questions without needing judgment or negative retaliation. By asking questions, they are seeking correct information.
BTW beasty, "y'all" has an apostrophe in it...
You guys are lucky you were able to stay in the safer side of town. I live in Fairview which is south east Asheville. My area including Gerton, Bat Cave, Chimney Rock, Lake Lure, as well as swannanoa and Black mountain has been devastated. It’s hard to believe this even happened here. Terrible mudslides and floods killed a lot of people and destroyed roads and forests. I was without power, water, and cell for 2 weeks. Many people I know are still out of power and water. But as you mentioned in the beginning of your video, this tragedy has brought us all back together….dissolving the differences that have created terrible separation in our country. I feel a great paradox of emotions from grief to heart opening beauty. I’m an herbalist so I’m serving my community by giving away formulas for stress, depression, anxiety, and grief. Many people are stepping up to help one another. Glad yall made it out of here safely. Thanks for sharing your experience. I was cut off from what happened in other areas so I am relieved to see downtown at least still stands.
Wow-- Yes - I heard thee are WORSE places than Asheville :(
PS - Red Cross is corrupt == "loses" funds in Every Big Disaster.
Blessed BE.
I know these two people who made the video. I’m a massage therapist in Vegas and Jillian and her husband visit their brother here.
Anyway I like to say thank you for helping with your herbs. Y’all are going to need it. It’s horrific what has happened there. My grandparents lived in Hendersonville. They’ve done passed away several years ago but that area is Gods country! God speed stay safe and god bless you for helping out.

Still without power or water in north Asheville. Feeding my neighborhood nightly. started at 10 people which quickly grew to 100. Minimal sleep.

@@Ketowski Well I don't know, people in the midst of it stuck in the mountains with no help, as stated by people lucky enough to have internet access. Channel after channel reporting FEMA intercepting help to people stuck with no food and water. Is FEMA not an org that is part of the gov't? Why are civilians being refused access to help others that can't be reached? Why is there no news crews? Military aid,.FEMA doing what they were formed to do, help people in crisis. Why is Elon Musk being refused drop offs of Star links so people can communicate and get help. Why do we not see choppers other then private ones trying to rescue and deliver necessary live saving goods to save lives and being intercepted by govt agencies??? There are military who have equipment and are trained to build temporary roads and run heat sensitive drones to find people in the mountains that they can drop off whatever is needed to stay alive...why is none of this being used? Where do you get your information, just wondering, because your area may be getting help, some places are...but those who have been losing family members and are still stuck with no food and water are not getting help from FEMA , which is dictated by the government.
@melI Just Don't See How. They Could Let This Happen. Our Government Is A Disgracelowyellow2022
Glad you guys made it out safely. My daughter and I went to Asheville 2 days ago to volunteer and to bring donations. Honestly, we came to encourage others but we left feeling encouraged. The resiliency of the people is truly beautiful. So many Christians stepped in to help!! God's people showed up big time!
Coming from an experienced off-roader…. Don’t “go go go go” through water unless you want to push water up into the intake making a plow effect. Go slow and steady.
Exactly. Solid tip for anyone driving through water ☝️
This is good advice please listen to it!
I was really scared with the "go go go go go." I tried it once with my first vehicle in 2002 as an inexperienced car owner and paid a very steep price for my naivety.
Yes, slow and steady, but DO NOT STOP either!
Exactly
OMG. Watching this from 🇨🇦. I'm speechless with a lump in my throat and a heavy heart. The devastation is beyond comprehension.
Me too. I bawl everytime I watch these videos of devastation and tragedy in NC. I feel I need to, I need to be humbled, thankful to be safe, awake and aware of what's happening to our world and I have a feeling it's just going to get worse. This is an early video. I've been seeing how the government is stopping any aid whatsoever. It's appalling and heartbreaking.
@@mellowyellow2022 They stopped drones that were searching for people. Afraid of what they might see??
I'm down in Mississippi and we've been through hurricanes before, Katrina and others, trees down and no power for weeks but Helena has devastated whole towns. So sad for everyone. 😢
I'll I can think of is food, water, ? Jesus bring in you good 🙏❤️🌹
Okay Im crying, in Jesus Name please watch over this horrific tragedy 🙏
The people trying to help are AMAZING!!!
Not our government though,they just want illegal foreigners coming and giving them all our resources including housing in four and five star hotels,giving them food stamps with thousands of dollars on their EBT cards. I see the illegal immigrants getting all kinds of food at the checkout line pay with their EBT cards, while the American families are behind them, buying beans and rice and having a little. The American children are basically starving,while the illegals are getting steaks and steaks. It’s unbelievable to me to see our American children starving while the illegal immigrants get all our money that we pay taxes into. American families are starving, homeless, living on the streets, while all these illegals get everything. I see it daily in the checkout lines, and on the streets. We need help.
Where in the hell is the Government????

Thank yourselves or your homebuilder. Depending on where you were. If you ran you saved yourself, if you stayed home and got hit by water your builder saved you. And if you didn't get hit at all, the wind saved you
It is the response of Human Being.
To cooperate and support Life around us IS the Natural state of the Cosmos.
It isn't rare that humans respond in a cooperative way when tragedy strikes.
In THAT situation, the politics and hatred and name calling and the religious rhetoric and judgements fall away.
As it COULD BE if each person imagined, fully, the need we have for each other. How important it is the Honor and Respect one another , IN SPITE of differences in our minds.
Blessings to All 🙏

The governors of all the affected states are stopping their life-saving work to go do interviews to dispel the kind of fake information you are trying to push.

Global warming is real
My heart goes out to everyone in Ashville. I live in Charlotte and see the devastating aftermath of Helene. Our Walmarts have been collecting donations. Today saw a truck full of generators,blankets,cases of water. Prayers for you all.
This is the part that infuriates me… Walmarts collecting donations, allowing people to spend the money on supplies for the people WALMART MADE OUT LIKE A BANDIT DURING COVID… why aren’t they donating supplies that are needed in these communities? Many of the smaller ones are centered around the Walmart in their communities. Proof they are part of the problem, and not solutions.
tipsybass7060. Yeah, Walmart! People, come in here, spend your money here, and we’ll send our paid for products to the flooded areas!!!! Wow, brilliant!! One of the BIG CORPS that set up shop strategically ALL OVER the USA, just outside of a big group of small towns. Unfortunately most all of the American people WENT SHOPPING there, to then “save a buck”…and so put ALL THEIR LOCAL TOWN BUSINESSES FN “OUT OF BUSINESS “!!! NOW these massive operations OWNED BY MEN who also OWN ALL of the massive shipping companies shipping EVERYTHING moving around the WORLD, have ALL AMERICANS BY THE GONADS!!! AND recently, and with already record profits, they DOUBLE, TRIPLE their prices ON EVERYTHING needed by THE PEON PEOPLE!!!! FUGGEN CORPORATE GREED!!!
THEY are sucking the wealth right out of the AMERICAN PEOPLE!!! IMAGINE the money going to THESE MEN, and out of the American people!!!
AND MORE but I must stop there….Right, INFURIATING!!
Better hope Walmart doesn't give the donations to fema, otherwise it's a lost cause.
They're collecting for Red Cross DON'T GIVE TO THEM!!!
Screw Walmart! They can afford to send millions in supplies themselves and hire helicopters and use drones to drop it off. Owners are BILLIONAIRES! Don’r praise a company that is greedily collecting more off the average Joe or poor who already give them their money.
I would never donate to a Walmart or places like that. The nerve….
It's WAY MORE THAN ASHEVILLE. Ashville is a fraction. The devastation that happened all around WNC is horrific.
So far this year, the United States has given:
$24,400,000,000 to Ukraine.
$11,300,000,000 to Israel.
- $1,950,000,000 to Ethiopia.
$1,600,000,000 to Jordan.
$1,400,000,000 to Egypt.
$1,100,000,000 to Afghanistan.
- $1,100,000,000 to Somalia.
$1,000,000,000 to Yemen.
$987,000,000 to Congo.
$896,000,000 to Syria.
$9,000 per illegal immigrant that has entered the U.S.
And Americans who have lost everything to Hurricane Helene will be getting $750, courtesy of FEMA.
This is correct. Asheville getting all spotlight. 🙏🏻praying for us all ❤
My prayers are you ❤🙏🏼
Because they are heavily liberal. They overshot with the clould seeding fr weeks from air and sky just like the massive flood in Dubia using clold seeding . Praying for all the states affected by these monsters
It sure is. We live above the Pearson Bridge. We drove through today by the arts district and businessesvon Riverside Drive. Devastation beyond belief
Having lived in North Carolina for 14 years, spending much time in the Asheville area, all of this breaks my heart to the very core. But I know how strong the people of North Carolina are and how resilient they have proven to be over and over again. May God bless them in their rebuilding and regaining their strength from the loss of so many and so much.
The ONE positive of this is seeing human connection again. I felt like this video was taken 20 years ago. We’re all so distracted by our phones and ignore each other now. Nice to see it seem like old times even if it is because of a tragedy. ❤
Amen.
I 2nd that Amen
I 3rd that Amen. We're states away but got hit by 80mph sustained winds after Beryl and my whole county lost power for 4 days. It sucked because it was middle of summer and you can't really acclimate to no AC that fast, but it was the most peaceful time I've had since camping years ago.
Yep. Everyone is equal. No color. No politics. No b.s. Real people. Helping one another, the way God intended us to be. Sad it takes a terrible tragedy and cost to get to see us getting it so right for one another. That's America ! ❤ 🙏🏻
Praying for you guys from Malaysia 💞
This should be required viewing for every American. What an eye opener!! Many different kinds of emergencies could happen that could set any of us back like this. It reminded me to refresh our water supply for emergencies and add at least five more gallons to it and to stop running my gas tank so low....and to have, at least, SOME cash at home.
Cash will be worthless after the collapse. Stockpile pemocan for trading. It weighs practically nothing and lasts 20 years without refridgeration.
That is correct, most of us don't make enough money to live completely off the grid. That requires a crap load of solar panels and batteries but it can be done. Storage tanks gasoline, diesel and propane. A bobcat with a few attachments etc.
@@velveetaslingshot I think it's spelled Pokémon
Even stockpile gas to cook or use BBQ. Surprising what can be cooked on the BBQ even just heating water.
@@sharronward1234 Cooking oil also. Save it in the jugs it came in. It's great for fires and filtered you can even run vehicles on it if you do it right.
I live in Mars Hill 30 minutes north of Asheville, there is complete devastation all around us, so many dead. There are still people in Yancey and Mitchell Co. that people haven't reached yet. I'm sure the same in Eastern TN. The communities are really working hard to help each other out. This will take a lifetime to rebuild❤😢.

Shoutout to OLD EUROPE for their incredible kindness
A small place up Rt. 26 West called “Little Creek Cafe” did the same for motorists who were trapped and trying to get out, many with no gas, in the middle of nowhere. Men who were trapped volunteered to cook and the food was served with a smile. Great place to be stuck.

The one toilet in my house broke. And like you I just couldn’t be mad. I have kitty litter which is what a hurricane survivor suggested to others.

THIS is all a lie!! They are traitors to the American people! The hurricanes are man-made and the Democrats are the ones making them!! What they dont show you is nasa globalist traitors controlled by the Democrats are dumping tons of dry ice into the atmosphere to cloud seed the storm with planes. Then they use HAARP technology to move the storm into areas with high density of trump supporters. Its how democrats have been cheating to win elections and to trick people into beleiving the global warming hoax for years now...

It's all relative, don't forget. Bad times affect us all to a certain degree. Life is like a box of chocolates...
I live in a small town south of Asheville, the town of Flat Rock. We were also hit by this hurricane and had horrific damage to our communities. But the things I have seen with the communities sticking together and helping one another brings me to tears! Even though I lost a lot and had damage to my own home and lost a lot we had a team of trucks taking supplies to Asheville and Swannanoa and the damage in Swannanoa is so heartbreaking! Please everyone spread word WNC, East Tennessee we need help from our fellow Americans! Much love to all I am happy to still be here through all of this disaster.

One thing I notice you don't see flat screen TV floatin down the street like you did in New Orleans and people helping each other instead of looting each other!
It's crazy, there's entire towns and roads completely cut off up above my house. We saw some BIG helicopters, like apaches or something, going back and forth all night last night. I think they are getting those people out finally.
The small mountain towns of western NC and eastern TN were hit very badly, to the point where not just homes were washed away, but also the land underneath them. The death toll is underreported in the MSM. Lots of reports of so many dead bodies that the stench is a problem. Adding up the various local reports I've seen, and doing some extrapolating for the areas that haven't been able to report, it will turn out to be thousands, not hundreds. Lots of private rescuers jumped in early, in one place, almost 40 privately owned helicopters showed up and got to work around day 2 or 3, and were doing the Lord's work until various units of government shut them down. Government people don't like it when they're not in charge. Booty-jug shut down the airspace completely over the area, before any National Guard were deployed, and NC governor was doing nothing. FEMA was late to arrive, but quick to shut things down. Lots of truckers reporting that they were told to turn around and take their loads of supplies back. Apparently the optics coming out of the freedom social media got bad, and the government loosened up somewhat. I found X the best place to get info.
@@grizzlygrizzlemuch better response than Katrina… took 5 days before anyone showed up
@@grizzlygrizzle The problem is that there's no cell phone service, so people can't contact their friends and family to confirm if they're safe. As things move forward, and more is known, the death toll will probably rise. But I saw a video that a guy made in NC where he went to one of the communities where people said the stench of bodies was a problem. He found a dead horse and that was it. No stench. Local people confirmed that then stories weren't true.
Thank you for documenting this!
I'm not sure this couple deserves thanks. With all due respect how do you plan a trip that goes directly through a hurricane? All they did was cause more congestion in the disaster area.
People need to humble themselves. If the authorities requested for residents to leave the area. I'm pretty sure they didn't want tourists in the area. I'm not trying to be overly harsh this whole video just seems incredibly irresponsible.
It needs to be documented by good filmmakers who are showing the on the ground events. They were coming to stay and had no idea about hurricanes. This shows how unprepared most people are in the US when it comes to natural disasters, but it is great to see the coming together, which also happens. Regardless of why they were there, I think this is an important piece of film. We hear about how bad it is, but being across the country and never ever having gone there, this gives some context. Thank you for filming. Obviously, stay safe.

One of the most important parts of surviving was not talked about, but instead shown to us. You kept calm. No doubt you had big worries and fear, but you stayed calm, made a plan, and gathered information in order to get out of the area. That is a huge factor in surviving the aftermath of widespread destruction.
I live in Haywood 30 minutes from Asheville we were hit too and many of the surrounding counties also Tennessee was affected I have lived here my entire life so for 44 years I have never seen anything like this before. So many missing, or dead, complete homes and towns just gone. I’ve never been so scared and now living with guilt that I made it and still have my home and all of my family. My heart is broken for all of us it’s impacted it’s going to be years before everything is even half way back to normal. Please pray for those still missing and for the families that have lost loved ones or everything they owned. It’s hard to even comprehend that in one night, one storm so many’s entire world fell apart 😢

Looters are the lowest from of human out there in situations like this. My family and I survived hurricane Isabel in the early 2000s. Our neighborhood came together for each other but looters came in to steal what little we all had left. It was horrendous and everyone was prepared to beat their butt.
Stay safe please! ❤
@spirals73humans are inevitably going to resort to violence, we are a violent species.
You are lucky you got power back so quick. That will help a lot. Water service may be out due to damaged treatment plants and maybe clogged sanitary lines. That’s a problem but is fixable. What is not is human behavior of those that cannot wait in line for their turn and want the easy way out. Hurricane Maria Puerto Rico resident here. Hang in there; things will get better.
@@chironjopeurto rico.. Stay safe and screw Monsanto for giving yall some of the weirdest highest cancer rates of types that are usually very rare. Stay safe, live long ❤
I'm in Hendersonville, NC. Asheville is much worse off, it breaks Mt heart. Chimney Rock is obliterated. It's devastating. Everyone has been so good to one another and supportive. The response from the community has been amazing. It's just so overwhelming. So many are still without power or a way to communicate or get supplies.
it's one of the most beautiful places on earth and it's heartbreaking to see.
I live a few hours away in e. TN and have been glued to the TV in TH-cam to see what happened to my neighbors. This is by far the most terrifying I have seen about what actually happened on the ground in Asheville as it happened. So very very well done. Thank you excellent documentary.
Thank you for your excellent presentation.
This was a horrible catastrophe and your coverage was WAY better than the major networks.
Glad you're OK.
Yes, thanks for the footage the first 2 days. The rest was kind of opportunistic and creative drama.
God bless all of WNC.
I know the MSM has been kind of nonexistent for real stuff, so this helpful to get a real perspective.
This is the power and humility of the American people. So glade you all are safe. Thank you for sharing your story!
I just feel as if it is a miracle that you made it out of Ashville! Thank you for an eye-opening record of what you went through, and the suffering people there. God protect and comfort you all, keep you safe and bring you help! Amen!
My question to people who are praying during a disaster is do you know the gospel? I'd love to share, but don't want to push people unconcerned or confident in themselves? My true prayer is that people will be drawn to the one, true Amighty Creator.
Thank you for this video. It is very informative. I will continue to pray for all the people still stranded. Please Lord, save these people!!!
@@skeletalremains3860 my question is, if "God" has an ultimate, perfect plan for everything, why pray, at all? What are you hoping to do? Change his mind? Isn't this a little arrogant?

@@WynterFyrePrayer/thought = vibration/frequency/LIGHT/❤
fEaR is a REFLEX, FAITH is step 2.... ☯️
@@WynterFyre no, friend. It is because it is an act of worship and obedience. Our purpose is to honor and glorify Him, each other, and to be good stewards over everything He has blessed us with. Why would it be arrogant to be in a loving relationship with our Creator? Maybe I misunderstood your question?
What a miracle. This is amazing how you continued to travel despite all the obstacles you encountered. Sending healing and loving vibes to everyone.
The devastation in that entire region of the country is unbelievable. Hope people are getting the resources they need. Thanks for taking us there ❤
It's sad we only unite during a tragedy..
No thanks to Biden.
And some are trying to take that away.
And it's sad so many are using this tragedy as a political soap box. Not everyone is trying to unite. There are still MANY selfish people turning this into an opportunity. 😢
We are so torn apart by meaningless ideologies of the elite who hate us and love watching the division they create. Media shoves it down our throats everyday relentlessly.
I don’t think that’s true…
Wow! no sugar coating. Makes you see the desperation everyone is facing. Especially not having water. Thanks for getting this out.
We were in Asheville in a hotel near the Biltmore at the same time as you were filming this. Our experiences were so similar it was as if we were watching a movie telling our own story. We took 26 south on Sunday morning and parked in a gas station in Spartanburg and waited for a gas tanker to arrive. Seeing that tanker pull into the station knowing we would be on our way back to Myrtle Beach was an amazing feeling of relief. Thanks for documenting your story.
This is why amateur (ham) radio will never go away. Just having a radio to listen to can help alot. It's not a bad idea to get your ham license and learn the emergency channels and how to properly use your radio. You could be the only person in your community who can call for help in the event of an emergency.
That's how they organized help when Puerto Rico got wiped out the year of Harvey.. it was citizens with Ham radios working with volunteers from the states that were military veterans and Puerto Rico natives
To anyone reading: if Ham is too much for you look into GMRS.
My X boyfriend's dad had a ham that he was on a lot n one Thank's Giving he was joking around saying they didn't have much food for the holiday n some people brought some food to him and at that point he had to take it otherwise he would have been shund from the ham.. His wife was so embarrassed and pissed!! This was in the 90s. BUT, people were so nice n caring, it was kinda like the first Facebook.. 😄
You need a licence for radio??? Wtaf!!!!
@@lindasharp8523 yes, because you could accidentally tie up the frequency for an aircraft. it is important to learn all you about ham radio. An easier route would be G M R S. Look into it. No test to pass and you just pay 10$ one time and can put the whole family on the license.
Prayers to all the innocent animals and ppl that lost their lives!😢
😔🙏🕊️
🙏
I'm so sad when I think about the animals 😢 (I'm sad for ppl too but like wildlife and pets they're just lil guys, they don't know what's happening)
wow, you're a terrible being
Your reliance on prayer instead of science is what led to this in the first place.
Keep voting GOP if this is what you enjoy seeing! 😂
Thank you again for your time and video. Other TH-cam channels are reporting. You have given us a window to what's happening in real time. I'm glad you guys are safe. God bless.
Yes, the best vid I’ve watched about this hurricane.
Thank you for the shout out to Beloved❤ & Old Europe & thank you for showing the day by day reality of this situation 💔❤️🩹 Asheville Strong!
Watching this isn’t easy. 🙏🏽 to everyone affected . My family is from Cuba and there’s nothing like this to spread awareness to show what’s happening there. 💔❤️🩹
I was thinking that I hadn't heard anything about how the hurricane affected Cuba or other areas around there. Fingers crossed everyone is OK out there
@@denawagner360 i’m so sorry! i guess our news has focused so much on Helene’s devastating damage in SC, GA & TN and then Milton from Wed night leaving 4 million w/o power. you’re doing the right thing by reaching out! i don’t know what resources Cuba has to assist but i definitely will be looking into what happened elsewhere. 🙏
Thanks for putting this video out there. It’s well needed as I believe most people are unaware of the situation in these states. 🙏🏽 ❤
I am not in the USA and I am aware, I am puzzled by the navel gazers you speak of
Fox News has been covering everything all day long!
Hurricane season happens every year. It’s been getting consistently worse every year. We have a national weather service, the Weather Channel, and a multitude of apps. I’m completely baffled that anyone living in the southern US is confused that this weather situation has happened. THIS IS ONLY THE FIRST OF MANY CUS THIS IS THE START OF HURRICANE SEASON, NOT THE END OF IT. THERE ARE TWO MORE HEADED THAT WAY.
@@PorterWood09look lady, this hurricane came up to us 100s of miles away. This was absolutely bizarre and unprecedented. So, keep your supercillious attitude to yourself.
@@BrianButterworth-s4z I'm soooo tired of these Oh, well comments. Unprecedented, is correct. It's worse than Mount St. Helens with exponentially more loss of life.
These are my people, I live right over the mtn from Asheville. This is what Americans are all about, helping their neighbors no matter what the need is. God bless all of the families struggling and I’m glad you guys made it out safe.
I live in Franklin, NC
So glad you made it out safely. Asheville was my home for 16 yrs and I have many friends there who have been impacted by the devastation. Your video shows the reality of the devastation...grateful for you documentig this...heartbroken for everyone.
The relief in her voice when she saw Winston, isnt awesome how our pets can calm and bring relief from whatever is going on. Thanks for sharing this story! God help everyone!
This is a real Short Documentary Film, we see the beauty of humanity, we also see the fear, frustration and devastation. Pray for those who are suffering and hope they recover ASAP. Thank you for the presentation.
@@maxdu6793 don't forget that the government SQUANDERED all of our FEMA funding. So did George Bush, and so did Trump. The Government is the problem. They force us to give up half of our hard-earned income, and then block the roads and block private citizens trying to give ⛑️ aid and help.
Thanks for making the film. I'm glad you got out safely. I live in Asheville and love my city. We will build back-Asheville Strong!
asheville / swannanoe dweller, Thanks and God bless all the USA for the help from so many awesome people from so many places. Live long Love hard
I was the director of nursing for a new hospice inpatient facility during Katrina. I only agree to be the director after I was reassured that we would not try to evacuate patients since there were emergency generators on the roof and we would be in the 5th floor.
We had enough fuel for 72 hrs, so when we lost power, the clock started ticking. When we found out we were not going to get more fuel because it was being taken by FEMA and it became obvious that New Orleans would be shut down for months, getting the patients out became the priority.
It is a long story , everything that happened, but we were blessed in so many ways. I can remember it like it was yesterday.
Watching yall discuss the realization of the dire situation that was impending and the need to get out, I know how you feel.
Mobility Impaired vans arrived from the sheriff’s office from a town about 90 miles away and we were escorted to the Mississippi River bridge by National Guard.
We were told to follow close, keep our windows closed, eyes straight ahead, do not talk to anyone, and definitely do not stop.
We witnessed the aftermath of massive looting at a WalMart on the way-- empty TV boxes all over the parking lot, NOT stuff people needed to survive. Now the National Guard was there and barricaded the doors. Every pharmacy in the area had been looted. Our last night we were there, we could hear gunfire and glass breaking. The devastation was NO WHERE NEAR what has happened in North Carolina, but the violence was rising.
The most haunting memory for me was as we got to the top of the on-ramp for the bridge, there was an elderly couple with 2 pet carriers and whatever else they had been able to escape the rising water with. They were yelling at our caravan “WHY WON’T ANY IF YOU STOP AND HELP US!”
On the 10th anniversary of Katrina I was interviewed by the local newspaper. I have always said if I had it to do over again, would I do it. Absolutely, hospice patients are on the bottom of the priority list for evacuation, we were prepared to have to be there for a month- but with no fuel and rising safety concerns we had to get out ASAP.
Like I said earlier, it is a long story. A lot was learned from Katrina. Now there are plans for evacuation of EVERYONE.
But the devastation from Helene I have seen in all the TH-cam videos is gut wrenching. Who would have EVER thought that there would be this much destruction!!! Who could have ever imagined -- speechless.
Thank you my friend for caring for your patients. God bless you.
Thank you for your dedication for those hospice patients. I'm sure their families appreciated it. Katrina was so catastrophic. I've watched a documentary about Katrina babies. It was fascinating, yet heart-wrenching. Also, you should write a book. Seriously. You're a wonderful storyteller. Thank you for sharing!❤
When the reports of Helene & Milton started coming in it gave me Katrina vibes. Especially the mandatory evac zones from Florida, no gas & highway's jammed. My heart sank as I watched it unfold from Australia. I know it may sound cruel, but if ppl have lost their home, why not move somewhere safer to avoid this again in the future. Climate change has made weather unpredictable & so much more severe. I wouldn't rebuild somewhere that it's only a matter of time it happens again. Sending prayers to all severely affected
@@KatB79 My house was the only one on the block that did not flood, but lost part of the roof and the outside staircase was blown down with a wall and tree (it was a 2-story duplex, daughter’s family lived up, I lived down). With only access to upstairs gone and the water damage, I gave the house to my 19 yr old son- which he gutted and rebuilt- and I got a house out of the Bowl of the New Orleans area for the rest of us.
We thought we were safe from ever flooding again, but in 2016, there was a massive flood. A “river” with a riverbed that was 30 ft across and 12ft high never had any more than a few inches in it. You could walk across it and not even get your ankles wet. But even though we were the length of 2 and 1/2 football fields away from it, it made it to my house. My daughter had planned to build a house closer to the “river”, thankfully they DID NOT because she would have had 8 ft of water-- I was “blessed “ with only 18 inches.
I think that anywhere it rains it can possibly flood- or at least some kind of regional disaster. Gotta be prepared for anything- we even had a BLIZZARD in 2008- in Southern Louisiana!!!
Maybe you edit really well but i was happy to see how well you 2 treated each other!! We have to keep our heads level in these situations!!! Chaos is what leads to anger and fear and ultimately fighting. Great video guys!!
I can attest, they are the most loving couple I have ever met.
I appreciate how she kept checking in with him while he was driving in stressful conditions, just a simple, “how are you doing? You still okay?” is so important, but, unfortunately, too many people don’t practice the small kindnesses enough.
Always glad to overhear those little moments between couples.☺️
They are amazing God bless America
When you see people pulling together like this at these times it really touches deep in the heart .My heart goes out to America . Sending prayers ✨🙏✨
So glad YALL made it
Praise be to God
🙏 Prayers going up for the people in Ashville
Thank you for doing this video. May the Lord bless the people. My heart goes to all. God bless America.
This was so well done. We felt what you were feeling and that's not always easy to convey!
So happy you stayed safe.
Thank you for documenting your account and may God Bless you in your journeys.
The beautiful scene was when everyone was standing outside, smiling, sharing info & checking on each other. I love my state & how in a time like this everyone came together.
Oh my goodness thank you for documenting this. I could not imagine being in that situation absolutely terrifying. Unreal to think this happened in the mountains, nature truly can be unpredictable.
Thank You Old Europe!! What a gift to so many people!❤
Thank you for this documentary you ended up shooting. I gathered more info from you than I’ve been able to from professional news sources. I’m glad you’re safe. As a former resident of NC, my heart goes out to everyone affected by this disaster. ❤
Why do you think msm isn't covering any of this? Why do you think.qe have billions for illegal immigrants, foriegn wars...but NOTHING for victims here in NC...children tied to.trees to not be swept away by flood waters......while they fund the policing of civilian rescue attempts and support....
Bet you're still gonna vote for Montell Williams side chick....
My life has felt like a constant hurricane. Tons of trauma.
I’m a recovering drug addict who has lived my whole life in Florida.
Ironically, the only time I feel at peace is when I’m in a hurricane.
It’s almost like Florida was created to take the damage that hurricanes create.
It’s almost like I was created to take the damage that others create.
I will never give up. I found a little peace in helping others(my channel).
I hope if someone reads this it helps them.
If anyone needs to talk, I’ll always be here to listen.
You two are the types of people who keep me positive. You make good music, you’re helpful, and you’re living your dream.
I’m so glad you’re safe.
Spread Love Everyone.
Your comment touched my heart. I, too am a person that learned to live my life in chaos and when I had peace in my life it was uncomfortable. Through years of therapy, I am finally learning to enjoy moments of peace. I hope you can find that one day. Till then, embrace the madness and keep spreading joy.
I'm an addict in recovery, over 2 years clean myself, even after I got clean my life still felt like a constant storm, it wasn't until I found Jesus and now live for God that I found peace I'd never had before. I never thought I'd be a follower of Jesus Christ, but it's the best thing that's happened to me and I love my God today, He's the God of all of us, nobody is too bad or too far gone for Him.
i relate to your comment, I've had so much trauma, and still going through some of it watching a family member who is struggling with addiction currently and it's just very hard. I could use a friend who can relate. lol I'm glad you're in recovery!
You sound like a narcissist. Take a tragedy and spew a bunch of unrelated nonsense about how it all revolves around you.
Your comment touched my heart .
This is absolutely awful. TY for sharing. There is absolutely no reason that our military couldn’t have acted immediately bringing food water and supplies and rescuing people. It’s disgraceful. Glad you guys are okay.
Thank you for showing just how QUICKLY the water can rise and how you are at the mercy of others on the road, cars stalling out, etc.
I have never seen so much devastation in my entire life and so little response by most news channels world wide, who should all hold their heads in shame.
So very little response from the current administration also.. and what they have said are lies.. it's another land grab for another corporation.
Kinda like that lynching in Henderson NORTH CAROLINA that isn’t getting national attention! Happened 3 weeks ago North Carolina should be ashamed! Maybe if they brought those guys to justice that hurricane would not have been as devastating! Hurricane hit all slave states! Hmmmmm
I don't watch mainstream media anymore. They are single minded in their reporting and it's all about money.
democraps wants voters for donald trump to die so kamala could win the election.
The other states had preplanned and had NG and linemen and search and rescue on stand by but not our governor in NC.
I'm so heartbroken for everyone in Asheville. I know that they have many years ahead of them to rebuild homes, businesses, lives. The destruction that Helene has done is unbelievable.
Praying
No they don't have many years left! Jesus is coming! The Tribulation is coming! Repent
