Unrest in Cairo, Egypt
Dori:
Telephone lines are blocked from time to time. Atleast the mobile network. Also satellite tv like Al Jazeera are disturbed (through the whole Arab world Al Jazeera has said). The telephone lines are blocked due the services from Google and Twitter. You can call one of the three numbers to leave a voicemail which will be your tweet. I am somehow not very afraid about our friends. I hope and think they are safe and doing well. I only have really doubts about the medicines in Egypt; blood donating and of docs have left the country (I may hope not). Internet is only possible if you are very technical. But I think Manal and kids are safe. School are closed and most of the rest too.
Lots of love, Dori
Dori:
My apologies, I posted about with the knowlegde of the news of last night. After I posted heard the news and all the other news I started to feel foolish. I hope from the bottom of my heart that everything with them is fine since before I post above. It was not until I read the topic "Where are you from" and read that she lives in Cairo. I hope someone heard of her soon.
Love, -D
Sharmin:
I received a brief note from Manal on Wednesday - she and the family were okay but things are not good around them. Her access to the internet was intermittent and she does not know when she will be on again. Please keep praying that Manal and her family will be okay. I am so worried.

Madhavi:
My heart goes out to all the innocent people taking the brunt of it all...
Special prayers on for Manal and her family.....
Hope things improve soon....
Lena:
I only just read this thread otherwise I would have posted news from Manal earlier. She is o.k and her family, too. I communicated with her through Facebook and I saw half an hour ago that she had posted again yesterday, so she is o.k.
I hope things will become peaceful again in Cairo for the benefit of Egyptian people.
