White island Whakaari #Volcano Eruption New Zealand

Boatload after boatload of injured people were ferried back from the island

The only ones who were fairly unscathed not burnt were those in the group with the #helicopter

Those are some of the people put boat picked up. Praying for them and their recovery. Woman my mom tended to was in critical condition but seemed strong by the end.

This is so hard to believe. Our whole tour group were literally standing at the edge of the main crater not 30 minutes before. My thoughts with the families of those currently unaccounted for, the people recovering now, and especially the rescue workers… pic.twitter.com/mn704hobRk
