Update from Everest Base Camp

It is the next morning in Nepal now.  Jon said there are 18 people dead at Everest Base Camp.  Helicopters are arrived to get the injured people out.

Jon was just interviewed on CNN International.  It's the video titled, "We're feeling pretty lucky today."

I talked to a CNN.com reporter, and here's a link to the article:

Please continue to send your positive thoughts to Nepal.

Thank you,
Susan

  11. Hi Susan/Jon: A very worried family is looking for information on my nephew, Matthew Jon Susser (age 36). We last had contact with him on 4/24/15 between 9:00-10:00 from a "lodge" that was 3-4 days from the base of Everest. He is traveling with a Shirpa who was the son of a Shirpa who accompanied Sir Edmund Hillary. Matthew is thin, about 5'9", and has a tattoo on his arm of the number 24 in green (in honor of Oakland A's Rickey Henderson). Any information that you may have (his condition/whereabouts, where this lodge may be/it's name, the group that he was with based on this limited information would be greatly appreciated. Here is my email: gentleben40@hotmail.com
