Disaster Survival & Emergency Preparedness - Easy Ways to Keep Your Family Safe

Disaster Survival & Emergency Preparedness - Easy Ways to Keep Your Family Safe Review

While watching TV coverage of recent emergencies, I’ve lately become convinced that a book was needed for the regular family. You know, people like my wife and me, who live in a house and want to stay there. To do that, we need to have some things that will help us stay at home safely if food and water systems break down and there is a danger of civil unrest. We just want to be able to get through it, help others if needed, and defend ourselves from others if necessary. I'm talking about just regular people, not survivalists. We just want to get through it, still safe and healthy.

This ebook is the result of over a year of research into the subject. And, exclusively available on request to Amazon Kindle customers, I offer the lavishly illustrated, original PDF format, FREE on request to borrowers or purchasers of this Kindle ebook; the email address is in the book. (Why? Because, Kindle doesn't do illustrations very well, and the PDF is heavily illustrated.)

I’ve prepared our household for short-term and long term emergencies, and I’ve helped others do the same. In this book, I’ve shared everything a regular, everyday family needs to know to get through a disaster emergency in their own home, without breaking their budget.

Three Facts

1. Those who prepare for their own survival, by definition, will be ready and will be the most likely to survive.

2. Those who don’t prepare, who expect others to take care of them, are the ones we read about in the papers or see on TV, who are crying that they weren’t ready, as if something had stopped them from preparing.

3. Nothing/nobody is stopping you from being ready, except yourself.
Everyone — yes, everyone — can prepare a little bit. It doesn’t take any extra money to fill up several one-gallon tea or milk bottles with water while it’s cheap and plentiful. (It’s a better alternative than adding the plastic to the landfill, too!) It only takes a little extra money to set aside some canned food and Bisquick®. A few bags of charcoal for cooking, or bundles of firewood for heating, don’t cost much. Having extra batteries for your flashlights should be a no-brainer. A first aid kit and fire extinguisher should already be in your home at all times, anyway. Your safety at home and away, hopefully, is something you’ve already taken steps to protect.

With a couple hundred dollars and some thinking ahead, many of us could avoid becoming part of the wandering masses. We could stay home, remain safe and comfortable, and protect our family and property. Wouldn’t you prefer that?

When you see a disaster happening somewhere else, think about the people there. Some were prepared and survived with their health and a better emotional state. Some were not prepared and suffered more because of it. If that happened in your area, which group would you be in? If your home is habitable, you owe it to your family to take this information seriously so you and they can survive.
