As the waters rose, and the wind forces gusted, Thurston couldn’t imagine what would happen next.

He says they were eventually rescued in a small boat and carried to a home that had was already providing shelter for some 90 people.

And now, some three years later, Thurston’s new home sits just feet away from where their original home that was washed away.

Thurston says since the storm, one of his daughters left the country, another died from lupus, and the remaining daughter is contemplating moving away.
