A 105-year-old woman is on the mend after a tornado destroyed her home in Martin County , Florida, while she was inside.Jane Huston loved the sound, and the view from her Port Salerno home. She lived there alone at age 105.“She is very independent. She is caring, kind, she loves her family,” Rylee Huston said. “She wants to be in her own home, as long as she can be.”The twister was one of dozens that struck Florida last week during Hurricane Milton.
So, how did the 105-year-old woman survive? “It’s a miracle,” Rylee Huston said. “I can’t tell you how and why, but she survived.”The 105-year-old is still in the hospital, where she needed surgery on her foot. She’s healing and also dealing with a badly bruised back.“She’s distressed. She’s upset,” Rylee Huston said. “She keeps thinking, ‘I want to go home,’ but she doesn’t have a home to go to.
