#typhoon karding

[thera-pissed]

I seethe with burning anger at the realization that when it comes down to it, keeping me alive isn’t instinctive with my father. The gruesome reality is he would keep himself afloat and let his own family drown.

He would have never thought to keep the pantry stocked in preparation of a storm.

He would have waited for an illness to pass, only rushing to the emergency once everything is too late.

I am enraged with the knowledge that I can die in his own hands and doing.

Hello lovely followers~ i figured it was getting redundant to message all of you lovely creatures on messenger, Tumblr chat and on discord so I'll say it here~

We lost power, the winds and rains are picking up even harder now and because we cracked the doors and windows for airflow (so the windows don't explode) many rooms have become wet but worry not fair muts!!!

We are okay~

4/7/2022 - Praying for our hometown of Dingalan as well as the town of Dimanayat. Many of our friends and family are currently facing serious danger due to Typhoon Karding. As I type this entry Lola, my mother-in-law, her kids, our Ninong and Ninang are trapped in their car. A large tree fell on the front end and electrical wires are blocking them from the rear. Some terrifying videos are being posted to local Facebook groups as well as calls for help. Although I wish we were there to help them, I am thankful to the Lord for keeping us safe here in Baguio.

Update: We just lost communication with them and I believe all of Dingalan's cell service is currently down.

Update: Communications seem to be restored. Our Ninong just informed us that they were able to get away from their car and to a safer shelter. Praise the Lord!

Update: The storm appears to be subsiding. Their car was almost moved by the wind. Many trees are falling. Roofs are being lifted from houses.

Update: Our family was able to find shelter due to the kindness of strangers inviting them into their home. Whoever you are, thank you! Allaine and I will be bringing you fresh Baguio strawberries as soon as we get back to Dingalan!

Update: As the storm continues to subside, there are currently no deaths reported or recorded in Dingalan. Thank you Lord! Also, the local government is already working to remove fallen trees from the road as well as other clean up efforts. I applaud everyone on the ground helping the people of Dingalan! Praying things continue to improve from here.
