Severe thunderstorms

This time of year I get really nervous when there are severe thunderstorms. Especially at night! One of my friends has a brother that was struck by lightning – twice! The second time fried his brain so bad that he is now living permanently in a nursing home. It’s really sad because he was a nice guy with a nice family, and now he really can’t function at all.

At night when the thunderstorms hit, and the wind is roaring, I am worried that there may be a tornado coming and because it is dark out we can’t see it. There is a church near where we live that had its steeple ripped off by a tornado – twice! So I know we live in an area that tornadoes can happen. And I have seen the damage done to other buildings in the past, so I worry. I try to hide my fear, though; I don’t want the rest of the family and the dogs to see how much it upsets me. I try to act as if nothing is wrong at all.
