Dateline is amazing right now.
 
Katrena/ Lindsay Boggs Medical Center evacuation.

I worked at Lindy Boggs. Transplant ICU.

Should have added this: thank God I was off that weekend. For those of you familiar with N.O., LindyBoggs is the old Mercy hospital.

Oh, BG. I'm so sorry. You probably don't need to be watching this tonight.

But HUGE kudos to all of you - everyday heroes!

Since we had returned home a day after the hurricane, snuck in after dark - long story, I helped a lot around the area in the weeks that followed, but always felt bad that I wasn't at the hospital for the storm. A good friend had to swim from the hospital to her home to get a neighbor's boat. Don't know what they are showing on Dateline, but she was the first to start any evacuation effort from that hospital.

Thanks, y'all. It is a real treat for us Westerners to get a heads up about any interesting tv shows....because it won't be on here for a couple of hours.
