Leo’s Survival Kit: A Symbol of Hope After the Floods
As I write this article, the death toll from the catastrophic Texas floods has climbed to nearly 90. At least 27 of the confirmed deceased are children and staff from Camp Mystic, a beloved girls’ summer camp in Kerr County. An additional 10 campers and one counselor remain missing after the flash floods swept through the area.
We’ve all seen the heartbreaking images of sodden mattresses, waterlogged belongings, and teddy bears scattered across what used to be safe, joy-filled dormitories.
theCHIVE calls Texas its home, so this is personal for us. Many of us have friends, or friends of friends, who know parents with children missing. I cannot imagine.
