Living on a beach in Florida isn't as expensive as you think, especially in a condo. Hubby and I are looking to retire to Florida. Housing is cheaper than assumed. So don't assume you know anyone's financial situation.

I didn’t even think about how all of their medication , drivers license, identifying information who they are is all just gone. Seems like a majority of them are senior citizens as well. I hope someone works with all these people to get their IDs back. She seems to really have her wits about her for being 88. I wonder how old her son is

Hello smiling face 👋

Is there a gofundme for her? Does anyone know of a gofundme for victims of this tragedy? Esther my dear, I lost my beloved Grandmother many years ago. She too traveled here to safety during the War, as did my Grandfather. America became their refuge as their family, friends, and neighbors were taken into camps to never be heard of again. I feel a connection to you. And I would love to help you get back on your feet. I don’t have much but if I can give anything to help you gain some sense of normalcy I will happily do so. It is a miracle from God you are still alive and well! And I’m so happy your neighbors aided you in your time of need! I’m sure my Grandmother would say Oi Vey my dear, you’re alive! She’d send you hugs and kisses as she often did to me as a child. I know this tragedy will hurt for a long while, but it’s a blessing you are still here. If anyone can help set up something to help her please, I and many others will happily help. Much love ♥️ hug and kisses

You’re a sweetheart as well

God bless these men for saving this woman.

A much needed positive to this disaster.

I absolutely relate to losing the family pictures. I would always pull out the picture albums my grandma kept. I am trying to do the same thing for my family..

She’s still beautiful! Skin really smooth for her age! I’m so GLAD she is safe‼️💜

She's Blessed!! 💯

Since the last two years it might be easy to think no one cares or we're so divided. This story, and many others, prove yet again that most people have not lost their humanity. Perhaps we could promise ourselves to keep that in mind. Bless this lady.

88 years old... Here's hoping and praying that she's still with us in the 2030s. And let's hope her life is reconstructed and she's comfortable again in time for Christmas and New Years. God bless you and yours, Ma'am.

This is the first time I've heard a survivor talk about lost pets, I have thought from the beginning there must have been cats birds, and dogs who perished along with their owners, so incredibly sad...

I luv her accent. She's so cute.

@@Dana-jb6ej there are many Cubans here in Miami who practice Judaism. Esther is probably one of them because on local TV she spoke Spanish to one of the men who carried her out.

Bless her heart. At her age, she has proven she is a fighter. Thank you Lord for the wonderful man whom helped her get out. My love, blessings & prayers for every single person who is affected by this terrible event. I'm thinking of each of you from Australia 💕🙏

Those men are incredible .. good souls.👏🏽

I'm sending prayers all the way from Baltimore. This video.... This story...this ordeal....there is something God has in store... The same friends she fears she's lost from the 3rd floor are in a story of repeated phone calls to their family ... God is up to something!! KEEEEEEP praying ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Hello smiling face 👋

It’s really wonderful to hear survivor stories. I hope we hear from the boy who was pulled from the debris.

Helping others is what you do.
