Sydney Moore watched as the bassinet containing her infant son Lord followed the roof of her mobile home up into the funnel of a tornado ensuring, she thought, that she would never see him again.
Without time to shed a tear, she threw herself atop her 1-year-old boy just as the walls collapsed on them both.
Outside, her car was obliterated, and the area around her Clarksville Tennessee mobile home was completely destroyed.
Surviving the collapse of the home, she searched desperately for the 4-month-old…Then, a miracle. She found baby Lord alive, in a tree, with just a cut on his little face
Caitlin, Sydney’s sister, organized a GoFundMe to help the family recover from the destruction of their home, means of transport, and the loss of all their furniture and most of their possessions and so far, $68,000 in donations have come in out of the 100 grand the family is hoping for.
