My sister just got power back late yesterday. They were without electricity for a week. Her grandson that lives with her has asthma, the heat indexes were well over 100. She paid $750.00 for a generator Friday, the second to last one Home Depot had. She talked to FEMA yesterday and they told her they would only give her $600 for the generator and only because of the grandson with asthma. Nothing for the $100.00 worth of gas it took to run the generator for two days, about $500.00 total. If she had not bought the generator and a neighbor let her use a small window ac, he might well have ended up in the hospital.
She said FEMA was rude and she hopes everyone survives in spite of them. They have had at least one heat related death, what's it going to take to ensure more people don't die.
There is no reason for them not to have had power for a week, they didn't get flooded and most damage was from wind.

$600, she's lucky. I only got $250 from them for my generator after Wilma and we were without power for 2 weeks.
Oh, btw, tell her she's welcome for using my tax dollars to pay for her lack of electricity.

What is all this? I had to buy my own generators no one helped me buy them.

She has an asthmatic child living with her (did you miss that?), she's been out of work since April, I guess you'd rather he just die.
Where did I say that? It looks like FEMA saved her ass and she should be grateful instead of bitching about it and using the child as a tool.You should have gone home and called 211.What is all this? I had to buy my own generators no one helped me buy them.
