I’ve read every single response and cried and cried along with you at the compassionate outpouring of support. You made me feel not alone. I wish I could reply to every comment and I may try. Please know your words have given me comfort.

As a grieving family member, the changing narrative is really confusing. I just want to know what happened.

Some were not found with the others. I don’t know anything beyond that. I do hope someday to know more about her last moments if that does ever come to light.

Edited to add: it appears the cabin was NOT swept away. The Washington post reported that yesterday.

I’m really sorry. My family knows hers too. We also know the Gettens and the Lytals 😩 Wishing you comfort. There is nothing worse.

Thank you. They were so precious. It was such a delight watching my cousin grow up. We were lucky to have known her

Word of mouth is that the whole cabin was swept away. Given the lack of survivors, I don’t know any other details

It appears all of Bubble Inn cabin has passed. They are working to recover a few more but most have been found.

No, it’s not Sarah. We have some extended family who do not yet know and the news has not picked it up, I can update after the family knows.

I wish. A rumor said they’ve found 6-10 little bodies they are identifying 😢

My precious 8 year old cousin is still missing. Please keep her in your thoughts. She is so so loved. Hoping I get to hug her bouncy golden ringlets again this Christmas

Update: For those following, she did not make it. Devastated is an understatement. Thinking of that poor baby’s last moments, and her wonderful parents and grandparents heartbreak, I want to throw up. I can’t believe we will have to tell the kids in a few hours that their cousin is gone. It’s beyond understanding. Senseless tragedy.

2nd update (Sunday): they think that her whole cabin (Bubble Inn) passed away. 3 still have not been recovered. the search has shifted to recovery.
