Just a quick update on things here. Mum's house flooded again last night. They got 200 mls of water in a really short amount of time. She was bucketing out water from midnight to 3am, not even the pump could keep up. Luckily her neighbors are so wonderful and came over to help.
I've been there since early this morning cleaning up and I'm about to go back with food supplies to feed the neighbors and their nine (yes nine) children who are currently ripping out all of the carpet from their house. They are predicting more storms tonight. I don't know how much longer my Mum can cope with this.
I go to Melbourne tomorrow morning (really bad timing) but I know that if Mum needs anything Dean would go around in an instant.
The creek near Mum's house used to be a small trickle but it's now a raging torrent, it's actually quite scary. It's up over the bridge. Please pray for no more rain or storms in Brisbane.

Wow. That sound really difficult for your whole family. I sincerely hope that the storms wade and you can enjoy your trip knowing that Dean is around for her.
You're in my thoughts, and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that you all stay safe and that the rain is over!
I hope you won't get any more storms there! Have great time in Melbourne!
