Some people didn't have any water. You'll never know how much you need until you lose it for that long! I feel very sorry for all the people in the hurricane. I was going crazy without power for 11 days, and I can't imagine what it must be like to live where there are hurricanes every year!

We got hit in that same storm. Luckily, however we only were with out power for 24 hours. Some people were with out power for about as long as you. Stores in the area had to throw away THOUSANDS of dollars worth of food. As bad as we thought it was, I still cannot imagine living in the path of the hurricanes. We get one kind-of bad storm every few years, but they get horrible storms more often.
