ENCINITAS, Calif. — Amid historic flooding in Southern Brazil , an Encinitas woman is describing her wheelchair-bound father’s harrowing rescue from his home.
On Saturday, her wheelchair-bound father, who suffers from a degenerative neurological condition, was carried out of his home of 25 years by volunteers as floodwaters approached. Rescues by boat and jet ski are still unfolding every day. More than 150,000 are now homeless, and millions are without power.
‘I can’t believe now, on top of everything, there is the risk of alligators getting you,” said Rossini.
