</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">For those of you that had damage due to
the tornado's here are some tips from when I lost my home in Little Axe to the 2010
tornado.
</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">

</div><ol>
<li><div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Watch out for looters that was the
biggest problem I had. Make sure the stuff you are trying to save
is in a secure locked location. They even stole the cars I had left
at the home while I was staying at my parents home.</div>
<li><div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Whether you have insurance or not,
completely destroyed or just damaged go to the FEMA web page and
start a claim immediately, they are the ones that helped me the
most. They have to come out and talk to you usually so the sooner
the better.</div>
<li><div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Go to the following web site for
information on what to do: Red Cross, Salvation Army, Goodwill.</div>
<li><div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Take all the help you can local
churches, people just wanting to help. You have enough to think about
just trying to get back some semblance normal.</div>
<li><div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">I spent several months trying to
clean up the property, holding my cat and crying before I was able
to move on with my life. I still own the property I haven't rebuild
yet but someday plan to, I really like living in town now. The
memories are still there and sometimes during storms it almost gets
the best of me, but it does get better. I hope this may help
someone out there sometimes you just need to know where to start.</div>
