Day 2.I'm up at 4:30am Gloria's knock out pill didn't last long...but I needed the nap for the strength I am going to need today...Rescue begins at 6:oo am because of low tide....Island is swarming with news reporters...CNN, ABC, Local networks....local newpapers....Rick arrives at 7:00am...He is told all we know at this point..."why weren't you watching the boys out here??!!" What??!! Oh my god... the guilt...darkness.. set in deep within my soul where it would stay for years to come making... itself at home in my mind, heart, soul....God forgive me for not being a better protector... my sisters Christy and Angie flew in to the Charleston airport at noon...Hilary seens a limo to bring them to the island... a great support for Gloria and me... Rick has not left the shore... Coke, Pepsi, Burger King, KFC, local stores, keeping supplies for Rescue workers and volunteers... 3pm Christy decides to call her Psychic in Jonesboro to help.. Carol. " he is safe, he will be found next to a boat shed, white boat, wooded area"... Hope... I know where she is talking about, was there yesterday while searching for him.. got in my car with a bull horn...drove to the boat shed where the white boat sat 200 feet from the woods... sat waiting......it is dark still no signs of Chad....calling out to him praying he will follow my voice and walk out of the woods... scared, glad to see me... waiting....8 pm Nan, Joan, Carolyn, Uncle Randal, Aunt Joella, arrive in Charleston after driving all day to get to me... Rick comes to the boat shed tells me to ride into town to get them with Christy and Angie... but what he comes out and I'm not here?... He insist.. we go... 8:00pm Ruscue search stops will resume am... surrounded by love, support..many questions...no answers....no sleep... Joan insist I take something to help me sleep....I did....
