A Miami Gardens woman says she is relieved after reuniting with her father in the wake of Hurricane Melissa in October. It took her two weeks to reach him.
Kimali Stephen was stressed and on edge because she hadn't heard from her 85‑year‑old father after the monster hurricane slammed into Jamaica.
Today her heart is not just at ease but relieved that her father survived what he says was the scariest storm he's ever experienced.
Emotional meeting at Montego Bay
Stephen ran into the arms of her father, Albert Stephen, after walking off a plane at the Montego Bay airport.
"When I saw my dad, it was like, I was just so grateful. I knew it could've went another way. But I was just overfilled with being grateful and happy to see my dad," said Stephen.
