We would like to sincerely thank everyone who reached out to check on our office following the flooding this week. ๐
On Tuesday evening, Goldilocks Pediatrics took on about 3 inches of water. It was a long night, with Dr. Jess staying up to monitor our security cameras and closely watch our vaccine refrigerator and freezer temperatures to make sure everything remained safe.
We are incredibly blessed to share that we didn't lose any vaccines or equipment, and the damage to our office was minimal and quickly repaired. We know just how fortunate we are.
Unfortunately, many families and small businesses throughout Buckhannon weren't as lucky. Several people in our community are facing significant losses, and our hearts are with each of them as they begin to rebuild.
Moments like these remind us why we love living in a small town. โค๏ธ Check on your neighbors. Lend a helping hand. Make that phone call. Offer a meal. Say yes when someone needs a favor. The strength of our community has never been found in our buildings; it's found in the people who show up for one another.
Thank you again for your kindness, your prayers, and your concern for our team. We are grateful to be back caring for the children and families we love, and we're keeping everyone affected by this week's flooding in our thoughts. ๐
