Over the years, Hadeel Saud Tucker has had a recurring dream. Each time, she was alone in a large body of water and couldn’t figure out what to do. On Friday, September 27, she lived the dream as a real life nightmare. Here’s how Hadeel and her husband Nathan, an Army helicopter mechanic, came to be on top of a Swannanoa car wash, with racing flood waters inches away, all their belongings gone and with Hadeel clinging to their terrified cat. And also, how they ended up in Haywood County, appreciating the warmth of kind people who reached out to help.
