I have just had a one line e-mail which said that POLLY IS ALIVE.
It didn't say where/how/when or any details about the family at all. Just what I've told you - but that's all we were longing to hear isn't it.
It was just one line, from a man I've never heard of, and a name I didn't recognise as a family name, but it did say that she had asked him to let me know. So, I'm hoping to heaven that it isn't a hoax.
So, our Polly and Kate have survived. Thank God for that.
Phew! Let's hope this was genuine - though I can't think why it would NOT be!
Oh that would be sooo great! let's keep our fingers crossed this is not a hoax!

Oh thank the Angels, heavens, God whoever or whatever! You just can't believe the wonderful feeling that came over me when I opened the newsgroup to see that post. Thank you Polly, come home soon and safe - we will be waiting with hugs, love, stash, chocolate - you name it. And thank you to that man, whomever and whereever you are.
Thank God!

HOORAY from Oz!!
I have just heard from two friends who were holidaying near NO as well - they got out of the Dome and were bussed to Huston, and are working on coming home to Oz as I write. May we all get such good news about friends and loved ones!
Yes, I know, Kate. It did *feel* right.
It's just that, as I was writing, I had the thought that so many hoaxes happen these days, and someone could have seen all our posts about Polly in the last few days and just ... ? (I can't forget that someone was told a loved one was killed in the tsunami - but hadn't been). . In message , Kate Dicey writes
...I'm still cautious on this..... I pray this is so...but there are a lot of crackpots who read thru these ngs. Let's hope we hear some more definitive news.
Bronnie, hoping...
This makes me feel much better. Being a *cautious* optimist, I probably won't feel totally relieved until I actually see a post from Polly OR one of you tells us you have received a post directly from her. Just to give everyone a little smile -- a pessimist says a glass is half empty, an optimist says a glass is half full, a mother says the glass is bigger than it needs to be :-)))! CiaoMeow >^;;^<
I hope this is true! What good news it is!
YAY! YIPPEE! HOORAY!
and Thank God.

Yippee!!!!!!! So glad to hear it...
*big sigh*Yes, I do understand. The only thing that still does bother me slightly is that this James Johnston used the name 'Polly' (her RCTQ name), rather than Polly's family name (which is what I always use in e-mails). I'm still hoping, too ... . In message , Bronnie writes

Would you feel comfortable writing back to him and asking for details? That might clarify his truthfulness.
