Above them, in her friend's bedroom, Yvonne listens...

The pro-Dalai Lama crowd had also flung money at their foes, an insult indicating that they had been bought (presumably by the high lama's enemies in Beijing). Said one of the anti-Dalai Lama...
...says he has received only $1,200 and hopes for more. The family not only lost the rental home where they lived but another home they own (and were on the verge of selling, Slaymaker says). They did not have renters or flood insurance. The family also wants to move to a FEMA trailer in Cedar Rapids, closer to Kara's nursing home job and the children's schools. "I've just put my life in God's hands," says Slaymaker. "I don't know what else...
