Kartina's Effects on Marriage

It's been a year since Hurricane Katrina devastated the gulf coast and CBS news in Denver caught up with Betty Sanchez, a former Louisiana resident before being forced to move out of the area. Betty's husband, Carlos has stayed behind to serve in the National Guard. In the year since their marriage has been strained. Betty's personal life has changed: she's lost weight, got a new haircut, changed her glasses and has become the rock of the family. CBS asks if Carlos will be able to handle the new Betty and she laughingly says she doesn't think so. The article isn't very thorough, but it's a good reminder that more than just old buildings and government communication have been put to the test.
