>> i can't see anything sooner than two months. >> reporter: it's not only clean-up, but clean out, that's a top priority here in mexico beach. these crews are moving the debris out of the way that's blocking one of the main roads in and out of the city and they're clearing it for first responders and emergency crews. >> the first thing you have to do is survive. >> reporter: like hundreds of people here, hector morales is sleeping in his badly damaged home. he tried to ride the storm out, but his house started floating away. >> and one moment it came so high, that it got about five feet of water inside the house. so the only choice i had was to jump in front of that front window. >> reporter: the u.s. army veteran spotted his neighbors stranded in a tree. he managed to get them safely on to this boat. his daughter also made it through the storm in port st. joe. she just moved to florida from puerto rico after surviving hurricane maria. do you consider yourself lucky?

>> uh-huh. >> reporter: and this happened. >> yes. r: glor: i'm sorry. it ripped this whole section right through. >> yeah, but it started back there. l glor: muriel still hasn't been able to contact relatives back in michigan where she moved from to let them know she's okay. we're trying to help her do that, but she is in a very difficult spot tonight, as so many are. muriel's daughter, casey, tells us she was watching our broadcast last night and reached out to us then on the "cbs evening news" facebook page. we spoke to casey today. >> i just turned the tv on and i just happened to walk out to the living room at the exact time i saw them walking up to the house and i recognized it instantly. once i saw her, i started crying. i could barely hold it together, but it was so difficult to stop crying long enough to hear my mother talk and to know that she was okay. an glor: and casey wanted us to tell her mom that she loves her. we know that muriel's son is down there. he can, hopefully, help with the recovery. pope francis today accepted the resignation of the archbishop of inshington, d.c., cardinal donald wuerl. wuerl has been under fire for sex abuse victims for his role in a cover-up. but as nikki battiste reports, the pope did not hold him accountable. te reporter: in accepting wuerl's resignation, the pope crd not criticize his handling of sex abuse cases, but instead, praises him for putting the good of the church foremost. writing, "i am proud and thank hau." wuerl has been under fire since pegust when a sweeping two-year pennsylvania grand jury investigation criticized wuerl for protecting 32 priests, accused of predatory behavior during his 18 years as bishop of e ttsburgh. i interviewed the cardinal on the eve of the report's release. were you ever aware of any other allegations against priests during your time in pittsburgh? >> if there were allegations, we dealt with them immediately. we-- >> reporter: how did you deal with them? >> we always had, as our process, an opportunity, with a review board, to try to determine if the allegation was meedible. we responded very appropriately, with, many times, removal from ministry, totally and completely. >> reporter: paul dorsch was abused by a priest when he was 13. years later, he says he urged then-bishop wuerl to warn the community about the predator priest, but says wuerl declined to help. >> his resignation is long overdue. in my opinion, he should have resigned back in 2002 when i met him and he wouldn't do anything about it. he sat there and just put his hands up and said it's out of his control. >> reporod out a statement saying, "i am sorry and ask for healing for all of those who were so deeply wounded at the hands of the church's ministers." marci hamilton, an attorney who specializes in clergy sex abuse, says wuerl could face criminal ilability. do you think this resignation is isstrategic move to protect him from possible charges? >> i don't think that the eesignation can protect him. ot doesn't matter if he's part of the church or not. if he was engaged in endangering , ildren in pennsylvania, he's y tentially chargeable. rl reporter: while wuerl is stepping down as archbishop of washington, he will remain a ardinal and an adviser to the pope. nikki battiste, cbs news, east pointe, florida. >> glor: late today president trump said he plans to meet american pastor andrew brunson tomorrow in the oval office. a turkish court today convicted brunson of having links to terrorism, but allowed him to leave the country under intense pressure from the u.s. holly williams is in istanbul. >> reporter: pastor andrew brunson is flying home to the u.s. tonight after a two-year ordeal. accused by the turkish authorities of espionage and terrorism.
