Dumaguerte City Philippines Typhoon

I guess it will not be a very Merry Christmas in some parts of the Philippines this year. A huge Typhoon (Bagyong) hit the southern Philippines very near where Ana used to live. Typhoons don't usually go this far south, but this one did. Her family and friends came through it okay, I wish I could say the same for some other families. I read that somewhere around 700 people were killed and 29 people lost their lives in Dumaguete! I down loaded a new video requesting help. If you're reading this post, please help them if you can, and by all means, pass this video on. We need to get the word out to everyone connected in any way to the Philippines. Just take a look at the flooding and destruction...amazing.
Dumaguete is the home of Silliman University and known as the "City Of Gentle People". It is located about 400 miles south of Manila in the Providence of Negros Oriental
Check back as I'll update video/info as it comes in.
