I am so sorry to read that just what I worried about is how it was for you and other homebound people! In our neighborhood we have many elderly and people who need caregivers because of disability or mobility problems. We take care of one another the best we can, and we take care of ourselves, but in the event of a disaster not many of us would last long.
I have more faith in Oprah and faith communities than I do in agencies that are supposed to help us and get plenty of donations like they even know we exist. Those news reporters should be taking the time to think about elderly homebound or people with disabilities in their own families, and come out to find you so people across America and around the world who would want to will reach out to help.
I am sorry this nonsense is going on and I hope someone reads your message who can come down and raise their voices until the people in charge hear your story and all the other stories that should be told.
