Hurricane Katrina survivors all have a story. Talk to any of them, and they'll share a deeply personal tale of escape, of despair, of disbelief, of a rebuilt home, of a lost city, of a lost year. Along the Gulf Coast, it's a universal thread, something that connects people in a manner not unlike the ties that bind those who lived through the Great Depression, or Sept. 11. Twelve months after Hurricane Katrina, the survivors look back on what's become of their lives.
