However, the happy event never happened. It came as a terrible shock when i got a phone call this said she very suddenly passed away. Her mom died weeks before their reunion. Bernadette had to get to england right away, so she called Virgin Atlantic airlines to reschedule her flight. They said there would be no problem changing the dates but there would be a fee, 275 fee. However, virgin said it would refund that fee after she filled out a bereavement form. Which i did upon my return and thats when my problems began. Problems that she said went on for months. First she mailed in the form with the death certificate. But virgin did not refund the money. When she asked why, the airline said it needed more documents. They required not just a death certificate, but a birth certificate and a marriage certificate to prove i was related to my mother. So she mailed in those, too. Still, no refund. Another month went by. I tried to get a hold of someone to speak to. And i was told i can no longer help you. So she copied all documents again and sent them all in again. Virgin said it didnt receive them. I must have sent that death certificate in five times. The marriage certificates and the other certificates. Next time she used certified mail. Still no luck. It was the same story over and over again. We need more documents. We havent received the original ones. Bernadette didnt give up. She said it wasnt about the money, it was because the airline had promised no penalty for a daughter saying goodbye to her mom. If it was Something Else i maybe wouldnt have felt it so deeply, but i just wanted to have it done right. She contacted 7 on your side. We contacted Virgin Atlantic. And it acted quickly. The airline found the documents, determined they were in order and refunded her money, telling us unfortunately there was a delay in the refund as the correct documentation was not received at first.

I screamed and i cried and my daughter, we wrapped ourselves up together and just cried about how its not fair. Families side by side with search crews sifting through mounds of mud again and again. This has a toll on everybody. There is no one out here that hasnt been touched by the magnitude of what is going on. They are filling black bags with personal items, wallets, pictures, safes, anything they kept in their homes and taking them to centers for processing. Fridays rain continued into the weekend, turning the mud on the ground into even more of a craig quagmire. The search and rescue presses on. The hope of finding anybody alive is fading. We always want to hold out hope but i think we have to at some point expect the worse. Michelle franson, abc news, new york. The family and friends of a Pleasant Hill<\/a> teenager who was put into a coma after a skateboarding accident are raising money for his medical care. 18yearold ryan carroll was skateboarding in santa bash are santa brash raw when he fell and hit his head.

Police say the kids were playing in a rear patio with other children when they got out of a fencedin area and fell into the water. Someone found them and started when is called rescue breathing until help arrived. Its fantastic. And it doesnt require much. Rescue breathing. I think they did some compressions too because they were spitting up some of the water from the pond also and vomiting in addition. If you have a pool, you have to be extremely careful if you have children. You have to watch them all the time. Police say the children were under water for up to two minutes. Authorities say at this point no criminal charges will be filed. Five original rosie the riveters from the bay area are in washington, d. C. This morning to meet Vice President<\/a> joe biden at the white house. Virgin america gave these iconic ladies a red carpet sendoff yesterday morning with a swing dance and a free flight to the nations capitol. The rosies represent american women who worked, in fact,ory and in shipyards during world war ii, producing supplies for the military while the men were away at service. These women were trailblazers for those of us who came after. In the air line industry we call this an unmanned flight. [applause] each of these rosies worked at the Kaiser Shipyards<\/a> in the city of richmond. They have been petitioning elected officials since 2008 to recognize the contributions of rosies to america and its history. For now tesla will be able to sell cars in new york although they may have to set up dealerships some day. Tesla and the Automobile Association<\/a> reached a deal over five tesla Stores Currently<\/a> open in the new york area. Dealerships claim the stores are illegal because they sell directly to customers, while other automakers rely on independentlyowned dealers to sell their cars. This new agreement means tesla will be able to keep the five stores open, but any new stores in new york will have to be run by independent dealerships. Tesla contends it needs specialized sellers to explain the benefits of more expensive electric vehicles. Defense and space contractor Lockheed Martin<\/a> is continuing to invest in a new Research Facility<\/a> in Silicon Valley<\/a>, even though it went through major layoffs late last year. The new Palo Alto Center<\/a> was dedicated last week. Abc7 News Business<\/a> and Technology Reporter<\/a> david louie got a rare look inside the labs. All right. Go for it. Reporter about the only thing low tech about the new research lab is the way it was dedicated. It replaces three vintage buildings built almost 60 years ago when they tried to attract private companies to collaborate with academic researchers. 130 engineers and scientists along with support staff will be consolidated under one roof. The building so Energy Efficient<\/a> it will save Lockheed Martin<\/a> 1 million a year. Its no secret Silicon Valley<\/a> is sort of the invasion center of the world, so its very important that we are here because we have some key talent at the Technology Center<\/a>. We intend to retain our talent and we intend to attract more talent which having the new facility is important to us. The advance Technology Center<\/a> or atc continues to focus on technology for space projects that are lighter, and he shows us an example. The thermo plastic nano composite clips used on spacecrafts to replace ones made from aluminum. This aluminum part takes 28 days to get through operations. We made 300 in one working day at approximately onetenth the cost. The development of the titanium propellent tank designed for High Pressure<\/a> might some day have use in the oil and gas pipeline industry. The facility is designed to encourage separate teams to collaborate together. The palo alto mayor Nancy Sheppard<\/a> said more companies are tearing down Old Buildings<\/a> in favor of Energy Efficient<\/a> ones for good reason. You either write a check for your power or you get to have more money to do what you want to do. I think that companies have realized and learned that they would like to invest in research.

Well, lisa argen will be along shortly with a full accuweather forecast. Federal and state officials are taking some unusual measures to help save california salmon from falling victim to the drought. The fish are getting a truck ride to shorten their migration to the ocean, all because of the drought. Abc7 News Reporter<\/a> Laura Anthony<\/a> has the details from rio vista. Its never been done before on this scale. Right on. The first of millions of baby chinook salmon are being trucked from the coalman National Fish<\/a> hatchery in Northern California<\/a> to be released into the delta. It is bypassing in some cases over 200 miles of River Habitat<\/a> to get them away from some of the stressers of high water temperatures, low river flows and increased exposure to predatory fish. The dangers this year are entirely due to the drought. One that allows these tiny fish to travel on their own far too dangerous. Conditions in dnecessary the conditions in the river right now are not favorable to releasing of these fish. So we have now decided we are going to truck all of them, the states fallrun chinook. This operation will continue for the next two and a half months. 240 truck runs, as many as 30 million fish from state and federal hatcheries. These fish will be threeyear olds, which is adult in the year 2016. The more immediate threat is the threat of the being pulled into the cross channel gates. The gates normally would be closed but open this year to allow water to be pumped for agriculture. In rio vista, laura anton any abc7 news. A lot of creative ways to deal with our lack of water. But we are getting some rain now. We are. We had anywhere from a quarter in top over an in inch the mountains yesterday. And today we have that break. Heres a look at live doppler 7hd. The sun coming up in just a few minutes and setting at 7 31. So welcome rain yesterday. Heres a look at live doppler 7hd. We still have a few areas of isolated sprinkles around due to the unstable air mass behind the front. Here is a look at mt. Tam where the fog has been an issue from santa rosa and also along the coast. 50 santa rosa, 47 redwood city and mid40s los gatos. Half moon bay about 5mile visibility and 49 degrees. Santa cruz looking pretty nice. Cloudy, though. Temperatures there will be on the cool side, near 60 trees. 45 in concord. It is 39 degrees in concord. Chilly conditions, relatively speaking, compared to where we are yesterday. 12 do 13 degrees cooler from concord to hayward, as well as livermore and novato. The coast is about 5 degrees cooler and also the san carlos airport. Emeryville, plenty of clouds. But we will look for partly cloudy conditions this afternoon. The fog in the morning, perhaps an isolated shower over the highest elevations. The cumulus build ups is probably nothing more than that. Heavy rain and wind, a much colder system to snow levels around 3500 feet late tomorrow afternoon. So, yeah, its all coming together the last couple days of march and even some spring thunderstorms possible into tuesday. Heres the radar and satellite composite. The next system cueing up offshore. Its a pretty strong one. Heres the rest of the day today. You notice we will be underneath a partly cloudy sky right through 9 00. And tomorrow morning, 11 00 we will look at some rain. By 1 00 some heavy rain along the north coast here. Pushes into the rest of the bay area. By the afternoon commute, look at 5 00. Kind of dicey out there. Lake county looking at the low snow levels as well as perhaps mound hamilton and mt. Diablo the later evening hours. Here we are the tuesday among as the area of low pressure parallels the coast. With the cool and unstable air the possibility of thunderstorms and sunny breaks on tuesday. Tuesday evening still looking rather soggy. And then into wednesday maybe a lingering shower. Then we will get into some more stable air. Rainfall estimates through tuesday night, a little bit more impressive with anywhere from three quarters inch to two inches here. Half in top about an inch the rest of the bay area. We will look for wind gusts in excess in some parts of the bay area over 40 miles an hour. Upper 50s Half Moon Bay<\/a>. 62 santa cruz. We will look for the game tomorrow possibly like yesterday. A long shot. In the low 50s. Its going to be kind of a wild afternoon. Not looking like its going to clear up by that time. So the accuweather sevenday forecast, wet and windy for monday, april showers, maybe a thunderstorm. A lingering shower and more stable and more springlike air by the end of the upcoming work week.

Heres collin resch with the highlights in this mornings sports. Good morning. A bad call, a makeup call and then ultimately a bad decision. Thats how last nights elite 8 matchup between arizona and wisconsin ended. Pick it up in overtime. Trailing by 2. Local product aaron gordon, 18 rebounds. The jam. He had 8 points. The badgers Frank Kaminski<\/a> unstoppable. Kevin mchaleesque, he had 28. Wildcats down 1. And nick johnson. The refs say he pushed off on josh. A 3. 2 seconds left. Gordon and head coach shawn miller stunned. On the inbound. The refs say it goes off wisconsins trayvon jackson. 2. 3 seconds left. Johnson takes a three and dribbles but he doesnt have that sort of time. Horrible puck management. Horrible clock management. Badgers are finalfour bound, 6463 in o. T. And not what either brother looked for. Flyers looking good early against florida. Scoochie smith, give me some scooch the gators with a 14point lead at the half. Scottie, he can cool his legs but not hands. Right to left off glass and wide open. 3 of his 23. 6252 florida. Half of the final four field is set with michigan state, uconn and michigan and kentucky playing today. In two previous meetings between the sharks and avalanche this season, one goal has been the difference. Same on saturday. Sharks trailing 10 in the first. Power play joe pavelski. Backhander goes. 38th of the year. They give up a shorty later in the period. I guarantee you dan boyle cant leave he did this. Nick holdens pass deflects off of his glove. Cody mccloud goes five hole and its a 21 game. Second period 31, avs. The onetimer makes it a one goal game, but semyon varlamov, man, he was good. Turns back the redirect. 44 saves. Avs win, 32. Sharks lost three straight. Pittsburgh, Nathan Stanley<\/a> stanley to reggie gray. He caught the ball with three seconds left. Darren said lets go for the win on the road. Gray falls down on the flats. Stanley adjusts. Hits jason willis, but he cant hold on. 48, cats 47, san jose first loss of the season, 21 now. Earthquakes. Jordan stuart knocks it away from the keeper john bush. And Victor Bernard<\/a> clears it in his own net. Two great players combining on the lone goal. That hurts. Means nothing if san jose can come back and win, right . Kurt, 6 30, the game is tied. Controversial play now during stoppage time. Fouled by bernard as the whistle is blown but the ball is still moving on the free kick. New england plays on. The refs do nothing. Wynn takes advantage and there is the game winner.
