(AP) — To treat patients, Sam Muscari Sr. and Manuel Barit rely on their memories — among the only things left intact in this flood-ravaged coalfield town. The doctors’ downtown of fices were destroyed by July’s record floods. Hundreds of records detailing medical histo ries are now a mud-caked, use less mess. Also gone are X-ray ma chines, computers and equip ment the doctors onte used to diagnose ailments and prescribe treatments. The doctors have set up makeshift quarters in trailers so they can serve the community of about 2,000 people. They have practiced in the town for a com bined 60 years. Even under trying condi tions, residents say the comfort of reliable care from an old friend is an immeasurable help. “People are trying to help each other,” said patient Michele Burleson. “T hat’s all you have right now.” The doctors’ practices were among the 60 businesses wiped out July 8 when severe thun derstorms dumped up to 10 inches of rain in the county. Runoff from a creek and the nearby Guyandotte River filled their offices with nearly seven feet of water. Muscari used to carry flood insurance, but he canceled it in the 1980s because water had never even risen to his door. But there was more than money to consider once the water drained away. Muscari and Barit faced a dual set of problems — starting over themselves and helping hun dreds of patients rebuild and recover from their own physi cal and emotional wounds. Barit’s solution for now is a white trailer just outside of conditions, both doctorsj they have seen no outbre flood-related diseases. Barit mostly treatedpacJ for cuts and scrapes cauwj cleanup efforts, along wit few rashes. Muscari has given hundred precautionaryte shots.

The name of the 64-year-old patient and her condition were not released. Another Madison County resident sk- ened by the West Nile virus was hospital* last month.

A con sistent performance from Evan Perroni may just be all the Aggies need this year, if Bernard has recovered and Warren continues to im prove. On the defense, Aggie junior inside line backer Brian Gamble could be a decent quarter back. Outside linebackers Jerrod Penright and Christian Rodriguez must step up to fill the shoes of the departed Jason Glenn and Roylin Bradley for the defense to remain solid. An en during memory of the Aggie secondary.from last season is 'lexas’ shredding of it by Chris Simms during the 43-17 defeat in Austin last year, which does not sit well with this group. “We made Chris Simms into what he is,” sai! safety Jay Brooks at Big 12 media days two weeks ago. Now they are seeking some formol redemption, which may not he as difficult as some believe. Junior cornerback Sammy Davis is a pre-sea son All-American pick, and Brooks has filledtii role of the departed Michael Jameson.
