Today bloggers all over the Internet are uniting to write about refugees in many different situations.   I have chosen to make my article for Bloggers Unite about all of the evacuations in my state of Missouri during the historic flooding in the Spring of 2008.  

Many peoples' homes were destroyed or heavily damaged as their occupants had to evacuate to higher ground.  Lives were disrupted in ways many Missourians never dreamed they could be.   On March 19th, 2008,  President Bush declared a major disaster in Missouri and ordered Federal aid to supplement state and local recovery efforts in areas struck by severe storms and flooding.  

Missourians were displaced to shelters, relatives homes, hotels and motels until they could return to their homes and begin the painful process of recovery and cleanup.   Some Missourians weren't that fortunate as there were over a dozen deaths in the Midwest in the early Spring floods.

You can view an MSNslide show which shows you the extent of the damage and disruption caused by the flooding.   Evacuations, displaced persons and property damage were rampant and all of this was accompanied by waves of depression and fear as the rain kept falling.  Here in Missouri we were happy when the heat of Summer arrived and we experienced the end of a long season of devastating floods.
