"I swam to the office."

This heart-wrenching post tells in great detail of one man's harrowing experiences in New Orleans; how he stayed in 8 feet of flooded water to save his pets, how he was held in a violent refugee camp like a prisoner and had to sneak out and walk 30 miles with bloodied feet to escape, how he was surrounded by the hungry, dead and dying, while still managing to experience gratitude and great appreciation for the kindness and goodwill around him. It's an amazing "must-read" post.
