Thanks Calli,<br /><br />I don't know whether we are going to evacuate or not. For a while we were going to, but now it looks like we might not. My parents are undecided. Looks like it won't hit us, and where it looks like it will hit, we are west of. That puts us on the weak side of the storm. It also looks like this storm will weaken. <br /><br />My grandparents were going to evacuate, but that was when my great grand-mother was with them. My great grand-mother passed away last night. While packing, she slipped and fell. She hit her head and had internal bleeding inside her brain. My grandparents were given the choice at the hospital to let them do emergency surgery or to let her pass away. Even if the surgery was successful, she would have spent the rest of her life comatose and dependent on machines. Her son, my grandfather, decided to let her pass away. She wouldn't have wanted to live like that, and he didn't want to put her through it. My great grand-mother lived a full and long life. She was a very good lady, and now she is going to a better place. She will be able to see her husband, parents, and siblings once again.<br /><br />So over at my grandparents house they are working very somberly to prepare their new house for the storm. They just moved in two weeks ago. They are also preparing to evacuate, but they plan to ride out the storm since we are on the weak side of it. They will leave though if it turns or comes our way. I <i>think</i> my family will do the same. We plan to ride it out, but we will be ready to evacuate if need be.
