Devastated parents are raising their voices and clinging to very little hope after their missing children were yet to be found, as authorities insist the response to the flooding is still being treated as a rescue operation.
Nearly 80 people were found dead, and among those were 20 kids, after the Guadalupe River surged to new highs, nearly 30 feet above the usual height.
This devastated a children’s summer camp and ripped many families apart, officials confirmed.
One father shared through a recent interview with CNN how his separation in the hunt for his missing daughter and her friends is still on the rise as they have not seen or heard from them since the disaster struck.
Another resident shared how the last time they heard from the group was Friday morning at 4 am.
Tragic reports revealed how the camp’s director had died while trying to rescue some of the girls, causing a chilling reality to many parents that their loved ones may never be found due to the depth of the water.
The house where the girls were residing is no longer present, and that’s a stark reminder to many people about how changes of survival but surely becoming limited.
One father shared how his daughter and her friends called and then frantically hung up the phone, explaining how they needed more assistance to help the others who were just washed away.
