The news from New Orleans is just awful. I've donated everything I can right now and it doesn't feel like it's nearly enough.

This evening I am working phone banks for the Oklahoma Medical Reserve Corps -- we are trying to set up teams of nurses and physicians to help in the area.

For those still trapped in the area, it is a nightmare, and I hope they will all be rescued soon. But even for those who evacuated early, or who escaped later, it is still awful -- everything just gone.

How do you put your life back together after something like that? I can't imagine.
