Last week I wrote about our friends from Burma http://blog.canadianparents.com/sarahnb/2008/05/11/burmese-cyclone/ as did my brother http://occasionallywright.typepad.com/
My mom just called and said everyone is safe. They received an email and no one was injured or lost. An amazing story it is. In Rangoon, you pay your rent a year in advance. the rental agreement expired at midnight the day before the cyclone hit. So the day of the cyclone, they were moved into a new apartment. The old building was demolished and not a single tenant in the new building was killled. Everyone was safe.
I am so happy for Ruth and Aung that their family is safe and sound. The last we had heard, it would be 3-4 weeks before a brother in Malaysia would be able to get information. Thank You God for keeping this family safe.
